Houston Center for Contemporary Craft

Opened in 2001, the Houston Center for Contemporary Craft is a nonprofit arts organization founded to advance education about the process, product and history of craft. The institution’s emphasis is on art objects made primarily from craft materials, such as clay, fiber, glass, metal, wood or found and recycled materials. Featuring exhibition, retail and studio spaces to support the work of local and national artists, the center also serves as a resource for artists, educators and the community-at-large and is one of only a few venues in the country dedicated exclusively to craft at the highest level. The Houston Center for Contemporary Craft is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sundays.
