Video: The Smithsonian Craft Show

Simply put, the Smithsonian Craft Show is one of the most prestigious contemporary art events in the United States. More than 100 exhibitors meet in Washington, D.C. at the National Building Museum to not only show and sell their limited edition creations; they also connect with visitors to discuss their work in person. This unique opportunity provides art lovers the opportunity to meet expert artisans in jewelry, furniture, glass, ceramics, and basketry. Check out some of the most amazing pieces from the 2009 Smithsonian Craft Show.
