The glitter of the new year is fading but the spirit of craft keeps us all moving forward.
We return for our 15th year of Craftin’ Outlaws! We return to the Columbus Museum of Art, March 29 with some new Outlaws and some old timey favorites. Stay tuned for the vendor list and Instagram takeovers.

Speaking of the CMA, look for our 2020 designer The Makist to kick off another round of Think Like an Artiston Thursday, February 6.. Craft a mini abstract painting, write a letter to your future self, design a button or just sit back and enjoy a drink. Musical stylings from Sam Corlett, who will also offer up song dedications.

You can find the entire Outlaws organizing team at Midwest Craft Con at the end of the month. Join us for a 3-day creative retreat with keynotes, networking and DIY.
Can’t make it to conference check out the FREE art exhibit that kicks off the conference: Undeniable Threads. View works that showcase craft with topics political and social justice, showing just how loudly modern craft can speak as an art form.
