People who physically make objects understand that the making is only one aspect of creating culture: we need admirers and friends who are knowledgeable and thoughtful in their reception of our work, and who champion its grand diversity. This award is specifically for someone who is not a professional craft artist, but without whom the craft community would be sorely diminished. This year CCBC invites all regional & community arts councils, craft organizations and artists to nominate an individual that has made a significant impact in their community for craft and the artists who create it. The award winner will receive a one-of-a-kind work of craft which will be presented at the CCBC AGM TBA in Vancouver. CCBC will provide transportation and accommodation as needed.
CMHC-Granville Island would like to acknowledge that we are located on the traditional territory of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) First Nations.
