Craft in America


Craft in America, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Los Angeles, California. Conceived and founded by Carol Sauvion, its mission is to document the history and current practice of hand crafted work in America, and further an appreciation of its significance.

Its Emmy-nominated and Peabody Award-winning PBS television documentary series Craft in America journeys to a wide range of artist studios, institutions and community groups across the nation. The show first aired in 2007 and has produced 13 episodes thus far exploring themes such as "Memory," "Process," and, most recently, "Service".

Additional projects include the Craft in America Study Center which offers artists’ talks, access to an extensive library and archive of video footage, a touring exhibition, and an illustrated book.
