Craftspeople represent an incredible range of experiences and influences-from music and fashion to farming and machining. Now in our 140th year, as NBSS celebrates how we were founded and shaped as an institution, we want to share some of the origin stories of those in our community. Join NBSS President Sarah Turner for an intimate evening featuring the stories and memories of several artisans who found their life in craft.
