A full-sized crocheted skeleton! A giant piece of interactive macrame! Crafty stop-motion animation! An enormous knit tornado! Text-based public space interventions! Thanks to all of the artists who sent in proposals...I am still in awe of the calibre of proposals we received this year, and the proof is in this list of talented artists and crafters.

Stay tuned to the installations portion of the City of Craft website for complete installation artist listings including photos, bios, web links and more...all to be posted all within the next week or so.

Enjoy.

Signed your faithful Installation Coordinator,
