ACC Conference - Why the ACC is more famous for football than craft?

A rude awakening.
When I told a distant relative that I was blogging for the ACC Conference she was blown-away impressed, shocked, surprised!!!!!.....until she found out it was not THE ACC, the Atlantic Coast Conference (college football), it was just the American Craft Council Conference. (Although a D.I.Y. jewelry maker, she had never heard of them.)

A second blast to my ego arrived upon finding out that the blogger who writes "Monday Morning Quarterback" gets 1 million readers… Continue

Additional Work Info you would like to share: My work begins with post-consumer material diverted from a destiny as trash. Revitalized from the mundane, these recycled tin containers are deconstructed, cut, folded and reassembled into the extraordinary. This metal may not be as precious as gold or silver, but in many ways reveals more about the values of our society. Does value exist within the craftsmanship, by who made it, or by what materials are used? Or is value created through mass-marketing and mass-consumption?

I found many of the aspects of the PDS interesting and valuable. I work in isolation, so the information about networking such as Crafthaus has been great. The comments of established artists such as yourself and Andy Cooperman were very useful. I also liked hearing the gallery owners' viewpoints on their relationships with the artists, pricing and the state of the galleries themselves. Jeanie
