Grinnell-in-the-Twin Cities: American Craft Show Tour

Friday, April 20, 2018 5:30 PM - 8:00 PM


Grinnell-in-the-Twin Cities: American Craft Show Tour

Join other Grinnellians to explore the American Craft Show! American Craft Council Development Associate Bekka Merrill '05 will give us a private tour of the event, and she has arranged for a generous ticket discount for Grinnellians. Experience craft like you’ve never before from more than 230 of the country’s top contemporary jewelry, clothing, furniture, and home décor artists. One of only four American Craft Shows held in the country, the American Craft Show in St. Paul provides an essential platform for professional artists from across the U.S. to interact with the public.

5:30 p.m. Friday, April 20
St. Paul RiverCentre
175 W Kellogg Blvd.
St. Paul, MN 55102

Registration: Please sign up for the tour with Bekka by emailing Karmi Mattson '97, Grinnell-in-the-Twin Cities Coordinator, at 97grinnellian@gmail.com. Tickets for the American Craft Show are $5 when purchased in advance with the Grinnell discount code, or $12 day-of; children under 12 are free. To receive the Grinnell discount, visit the American Craft Show Eventbrite page, select the One Day Pass (Advance) option, and enter MSP18GCA5 in the Enter Promotional Code section, just above the green "Order Now" button, under all the registration options. 

The show opens at 10 a.m. on Friday and closes at 8 p.m., so we encourage you to arrive early or stay late to enjoy the show outside the tour. There will be complimentary copies of American Craft magazine and fun ways to interact with craft through the show programs. This event is kid-friendly, especially with the various demonstrations throughout the show; however, parents should be aware that there are many breakable things!

We look forward to seeing you there!

Please contact Karmi at the email listed above if you have any questions. If you have trouble registering on the Eventbrite page, please contact Bekka at 612-206-3129 or rmerrill@craftcouncil.org.
