Craft Contemporary
Miracle Mile · Los Angeles, California
Craft Contemporary - formerly the Craft and Folk Art Museum - occupies a beloved position on the Miracle Mile adjacent to LACMA, celebrating the full range of human making from traditional craft to cutting-edge contemporary art. Exhibitions consistently challenge the hierarchy between fine art and functional craft, presenting ceramics, fiber, glass, wood, and mixed-media work with the seriousness afforded painting and sculpture. Craft Contemporary also operates a gift shop stocking an exceptional selection of artist-made objects at accessible prices, making it a destination for design-minded visitors seeking something beyond the typical museum store and a champion of makers often overlooked by the mainstream art world.
