Responding to the Impact of Canceled Shows While we had to cancel our Atlanta, St. Paul, and San Francisco shows with the onset of the pandemic, we were proud to refund artists’ booth fees in keeping with our mission to support their livelihoods. CREATIVE ECONOMIES Creating Online Platforms for Craft Commerce When the pandemic ruled out in-person shows, we got to work building ways to support artists’ livelihoods online. As ACC’s first-ever online marketplace event, San Francisco Bay Area Craft Week supported more than 100 diverse artists from across the country and celebrated regional craft culture through a range of online programming.

Our second online marketplace, Craft Bash, featured over 90 artists and emphasized the value of giving handmade gifts—particularly meaningful at the end of a tumultuous year.

204 participating artists 60K unique visitors to the ecommerce site $207K in artist sales 35% of participants were BIPOC Online Maker Meetups, regional craft guides, artist playlists, and more

Online Directory Redesign We also redesigned our online artist directories for our shows in an effort to facilitate ongoing ecommerce for ACC exhibitors.

Ongoing Commitment to Diversity in Our Work As an organization invested in supporting the voices, work, and livelihoods of makers, we cannot turn away from recognizing the deep inequities embedded in the socio-economic structure and cultural fabric of our country and how they tragically and disproportionately affect Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities.

ACC has been working hard to address its own history of bias and exclusion, including the adoption of an inclusion and equity statement written by the ACC’s Board of Trustees. While we are proud of the work we’ve been doing, we also know that the work of real change is never-ending and imperfect. It requires that we listen, learn, cede power, and hold ourselves accountable everyday.

Craft, with its deep roots in all cultures, embodies a spirit of openness. We will continue to work within that spirit and with more intention toward a more inclusive, just, and equitable community. FINANCIAL REPORT
