We believe that purpose AND passion are possible. You can feel awesome about and inspired by the work you do whether you run your own business or not. We believe in the magic of making, whether you’re a lifelong crafter or searching to find your inner artist.

At Craftcation, we pride ourselves on a community-centric environment where attendees AND instructors intermingle daily so you can converse freely with creatives you’ve admired from afar. Our expert instructors graciously share their wisdom to help you achieve your goals faster and easier.

The variety of our craft workshops introduces our attendees to new skills and techniques. Our business workshops have been likened to an “MBA for creatives in a weekend”. Attendees feel empowered and equipped with the knowledge to pursue their passions and achieve their goals, whether it’s to quit their day job, scale their business or finally confidently say: “I AM AN ARTIST”.

 

 

We welcome you just as you are. No dress codes. No judgment. We are proud to foster a community made up of people from all walks of life who stay connected long after the conference ends. 

At Craftcation, we help you find your people – the ones who understand you and can relate to your success and pains. We’re not about clicks or followers or likes (although we know that stuff feels good!). We believe in a world where beauty is found in everyday, candid moments of life – no staging, no filters, no edits. We’re about genuine connections and year-round support in our inclusive, diverse community.

Craftcation attendees leave with new friends and a new community! They develop unbreakable bonds with their fellow attendees and roommates; building support systems and celebrating their unique successes. Trips and virtual coffee dates are scheduled to keep in touch and continue their friendships.

 

 

It’s never too late to get started building the business and life you’ve dreamed of. The time to go after that idea or that dream that wakes you up in the middle of the night or gets you out of bed in the morning is now.

We know that coming to a conference (especially alone) can be intimidating. We know it can feel indulgent and risky to spend your time and money on yourself. We also know that this investment for you and your business is worth it. Every single year, our attendees tell us they leave Craftcation feeling confident, inspired, and motivated to go after their goals.

Craftcation attendees have gone on to: get book deals, become workshop teachers, open brick and mortar shops, change careers to follow their passion, connect and collaborate with big brands, start craft markets, scale their businesses to increase profit and demand for their products, receive national press recognition, get over their fears of failure (and success) and more!

Year after year, the most common word attendees use to describe Craftcation is “life-changing”!

For the past seven years (we’re coming up on 8 in 2019!), we’ve had countless attendees tell us that their only regret was taking so long to actually come! Once they arrive, they always wish they had come sooner!
