Support the center
Explore how you can help us fulfill our mission to increase access to craft by resourcing, catalyze craft communities, and amplify craft’s impact in the United States. Your support will help ensure the future of American craft.
Annual gifts, unrestricted donations, named and sponsored fellowships for artists, research, and exhibitions, as well as gifts for public programs and exhibitions, are important in catalyzing craft and understanding its role in American history and life today.
Annual Fund contributions of any size provide support where needed most. From giving emerging craft leaders critical resources to offering innovative programming and exhibitions, your gift will strengthen the craft field today.
Your gift of stocks, mutual funds, from a Donor Advised Fund or IRA, and help the Center of Craft activate resources, catalyze craft communities, and amplify craft's impact in the United States. Distributions provide vital support to the Center.
Endow craft fellowships or staff positions. Planned giving is a meaningful way to create a legacy while taking advantage of income and tax benefits for you and your heirs. Your gift of an endowment continues the program or position in perpetuity.

“In 2012, I was the recipient of a Windgate-Lamar Fellowship…which allowed me to build my studio. I don’t think I’d be able to do the work I do today without the generous support of the Center for Craft and the Windgate-Lamar Fellowship.”
Brian Fleetwood, 2012 Windgate-Lamar Fellow
[I am a] step closer to finishing my book project that started many years ago when the Center for Craft supported my dissertation. I’m very grateful for all the mentorship and support that I've received from the community. The Center's support is meaningful to me and I appreciate it. Thank you!

“The support of makers through the Craft Research Fund Artist Fellowship is forward-thinking at a crucial time when the ideology of craft has the ability to promote sustainability and the building of community.”
BA Harrington, 2020 Craft Research Fund Artist Fellow
"This is the perfect opportunity for me to continue having a ceramics practice after undergrad and will let me travel to the country of my roots (Dominican Republic) to learn more about my family, history, culture, and self."
Sydnie Jimenez, 2020 Windgate-Lamar Fellow
We envision a culture where communities celebrate and embrace the centrality of craft in everyday life.
