Fall Equinox Seasonal Salon

Dear Friends,

What if supporting arts education meant becoming a student again?

This Fall Equinox, join a small circle of artists, collectors, philanthropists, and friends for an intimate evening inspired by the curiosity, imagination, and joy that define childhood. Hosted by Director of Education Dr. Kate Zankowicz and Public Programs Manager Danila Cervantes, this special Seasonal Salon invites you to experience Craft Contemporary's acclaimed Craft(ED) program much like thousands of Los Angeles students do each year.

Together we will explore our current exhibition, tierra, through guided conversation, playful activities, and a hands-on art-making workshop. Along the way, enjoy fresh, oven-baked gourmet pizzas, seasonal refreshments, and lively conversation with fellow supporters who believe craft belongs in every child's education.

The evening arrives just before a new school year begins and our studio classroom fills with young people eager to learn, imagine, and create. Yet for many schools, transportation costs and limited resources remain the greatest barriers to participation.

Instead of purchasing a ticket, we invite you to help welcome the next class of students through a meaningful gift the day of the event that directly supports access to arts education.

We hope you will join us.
