The Galleries at Moore are honored to host the 2025 CraftNOW Symposium on Friday, November 14th. Join us in celebrating CraftMonth with a day of conversation, gathering, and all things craft! 

This year's symposium theme focuses on Intention, exploring the conscious choices behind artistic creation, asking why we make art and how meaning is shaped through materials and processes. Every decision in art—whether in concept, medium, or execution—reflects the maker’s values, experiences, and desires. This theme invites artists, designers, and craftspeople to examine the motivations behind their work, encouraging a more purposeful and aware approach to creation. Intention also emphasizes care in the act of making, including the preservation of materials, traditions, and cultural heritage, and the role of craft in healing and restoration.
