Crafting Futures Panel Discussion
PART OF HANDWORK 2026
This engaging panel discussion with representatives from craft organizations across the Puget Sound region and Chief Curator Greg Robinson will explore the meaning of “emerging artists” and the many ways it can be interpreted. Jenna d’Anna, BIMA’s Learning & Engagement Lead, will moderate the conversation. The discussion will also highlight works from the Crafting Futures: Emerging Artists Invitational exhibition, focusing on what is most relevant to our region and our time. Panelists will reflect on their experiences of the show and share which emerging artists they find most exciting today.
The panel will be followed by an audience Q&A and reception.
