We welcome the new Networking Committee to CRAFT!

This Committee had its second meeting this week.  It has decided that it's first priority is to focus on CRAFT at the wholesale shows:  to make sure that the CRAFT booth is at its best, that we are promoting and providing the means for members and potential members to network.  We want to make sure that everyone has the opportunity to meet each other, to share of themselves, and to take advantage of what CRAFT has to offer.  The next few meetings we will talk about the steps to do that.  Once activities are in place at the shows, the committee is anxious to talk about networking members between shows as well as reaching out to potential members. If you are interested in working on this committee please call or email Karen at 617-571-5267 or kshohler@gmail.com. 

Margaret Stephens, Matt Jaros, Esa Everroad, Betsy Ratzsch, Chris Hayes, Lisa Lyman-Speckheuer.
