The American Craft Show in San Francisco

New artists, new work, and a new kids' component will be on display at The American Craft Show in San Francisco at Fort Mason Center, August 10 - 12, 2007. Celebrating its 32nd year in the Bay Area, this much-anticipated event delivers the nation's leading 250 artists and their latest designer jewelry, furniture, clothing, home decor and more, to the public. Guests can indulge in wine tastings from top vineyards, lectures on craft and design, walking tours led by local celebrities, and entertaining and informative demonstrations throughout the weekend.

NEW IN 2007

Craft 4 Kids - Artists will present clothing, furniture, jewelry, toys and accessories designed especially for children.

Online Tickets - Avoid waiting on line and buy tickets in advance

WINE TASTINGS IN TWO PAVILIONS - Wine tastings in both pavilions marry craft and fine wine from featured vineyards, including Topel Wines, Clos Saron, Trecini Cellars in Northern California, as well as Cru Vin Dogs of Engelwood, Colorado.

LIVE CRAFT DEMONSTRATIONS - Show attendees of all ages can enjoy a unique opportunity to view live glass flameworking, welding, torch cutting and blacksmithing, courtesy of Oakland-based school of industrial and fine arts, The Crucible. The Crucible’s “Educational Response Vehicle” – a restored 1960 International fire truck with a full metal shop on board – will host live craft demonstrations outside the show on Saturday, August 11, 10am-6pm.
