RISD Craft

From RISD Craft Website:

RISD Craft, our annual juried sale, features handmade fine art and design work by more than 85 alumni and 25 current students. The work on view speaks to the quality, attention to detail and mastery of craftsmanship students and alumni hone at RISD and bring to their own practices in a wide variety of media.

Viewers have an opportunity to engage with makers while finding unique gifts and one-of-a-kind items at this outdoor sale, which runs for one day only during RISD Weekend, our annual alumni reunion and parents' weekend. While checking out the exemplary craftsmanship on Providence's historic Benefit Street, be sure to cast your vote for your favorite artist to make them eligible for the People's Choice Award and a cash prize.

In 2017, Ahrong Kim MFA 13 CR was chosen as the Emerging Artist Award winner, while Kate Zelenka 09 AP of Noepe Design took home the People's Choice Award.

RISD Craft is free and open to the public, and takes place rain or shine (under a street tent if the forecast warrants it).
