The Smithsonian Craft Show is committed to presenting the most thoughtful, original, and skilled American craft and design objects.  
 
The Craft Show is looking for artists who produce one-of-a-kind and limited edition objects that have been conceived and perfected by the artist's own hands and created in the artist's studio. 
 
All work submitted to the Smithsonian Craft Show must be created and made in the United States.

One hundred-twenty premier artists representing all facets of contemporary design and craft will be selected from a large pool artists nationwide.   Artists working in the following media are eligible to apply:  basketry, ceramics, decorative fiber, furniture, glass, jewelry, leather, metal, mixed media, paper, wearable art and wood.
 
Please note: 
Many artists have applied to the Smithsonian Craft show in the past but jurors can only select 120 artists each year, so it is important to try again and again, especially if you have new and better images taken of your artwork.
Jurors who will select the 2019 artists are:
 
Nora Atkinson - Lloyd Herman Curator of Craft, Renwick Gallery, Smithsonian   American Art Museum
 
Jean McLaughlin - Former Executive Director, Penland School of Crafts; Board   Member  American Craft Council, North Carolina Arts Council, University of North Carolina School of the Arts Advisory Council
 
Emily Zaiden - Craft in America Center, Director and Curator
