Global Artisan Project
The Global Artisan Project supports innovative artisan brands from around the globe that are dedicated to preserving craft techniques, supporting artisan communities, and promoting the magical beauty of handmade. Brands selected for the Global Artisan Project exhibit in a curated community of booths at Shoppe Object and receive marketing coaching, promotional support, and an easy, elegant booth package to ensure success at the show.
