Returning October 3 – 4, 2026, Maine Craft Weekend is a statewide celebration of craft, community, and creativity. Featuring a self-guided open studio tour with hundreds of participants opening their doors to the public, offering a behind-the-scenes look into their studios and creative processes.
Participants can host an open studio, demonstration, exhibition, workshop, pop-up, makers market, artist talk, or another craft-centered event.
