PMA Craft Show celebrates 50 Years of handmade art

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- The Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show returns to the Pennsylvania Convention Center November 6-8 to celebrate its 50th anniversary, featuring 195 artists from across the country.

Visitors can shop handmade works in clay, glass, metal, wood, fiber, jewelry, and more while meeting the artists behind the creations.

Among this year's exhibitors are first-time artist Nancy Nagle, whose handwoven scarves and shawls will be featured alongside a scarf-tying demonstration, paper artist Galen Gibson-Cornell, who transforms street posters into woven artwork, and Stacey Lee Webber, known for turning coins into unique jewelry and sculptures.

The show also features fashion shows, demonstrations, and guest speakers throughout the weekend and serves as a fundraiser for the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

Guests can get an early look at this year's artwork during the Preview Party Gala on November 5, a special event celebrating the craft show's 50th year before it opens to the public.
