Join us for CraftNOW Philadelphia’s 2021 Fundraiser! This special auction and in-person tour unites Philadelphia’s best-known artists and showcases one of the city’s newest creative spaces. Proceeds support our CraftMONTH programming, economic development initiatives, and youth education.
The auction opens November 1 and will close at 9:00 p.m. EST on November 17, following in-person tours of NextFab and The Neon Museum of Philadelphia, both located at 1800 North American Street. Select auction items will be on view during this event.
– NextFab’s new location is destined to become a creative hub for multiple businesses with its more than 30,000 square foot space, which includes unique and state-of-the-art wood, metals, jewelry, textiles, and 3D printing studios.
– Several makers will be onsite giving demonstrations and available to answer questions about their work and process.
– Founder of The Neon Museum of Philadelphia, Len Davidson, will give an insider’s view of the collection, which contains 120 iconic signs and was forty years in the making. A group exhibition will be on view featuring The Dumpster Divers entitled Alchemy Illuminated: The Art of Crafting Trash.
