Since 1975, One Of A Kind's roots have been deeply connected to the culture of craft. We have participated in its growth, and we are excited to witness its evolution. What drives One Of A Kind forward is the core belief that craft can enrich our lives with diverse context and perspectives. With this, One Of A Kind is envisioned not only as a marketplace, but also a town square, a meeting place where people come together to give craft the commanding attention it deserves.
One Of A Kind's Purpose:
Rooted in our purpose to champion creativity, One Of A Kind brings together a community of like-minded individuals to exchange ideas, stories and objects through the culture of craft.
One Of A Kind's Story with Craft:
Craft is both a verb and a noun. It is an act; a process; an object, to be cared for, celebrated and
shared. It is this sharing—this meaningful exchange—that unites all of us. From a ceramic bowl to a 3D printed brooch, these objects carry profound value, filled with stories, beauty and purpose, first by its maker, and then by its owner.
One Of A Kind's Thumbprint:
The thumbprint is a symbol that represents what is valued at One Of A Kind—that is the beauty of human creativity and the importance of self-expression. This personal touch is what makes coming to One Of A Kind special, and we want to proudly own the thumbprint to tell our story moving forward.
Tickets range from $15-$20, discounts are available, and children are free with a paying adult. Tickets include re-entry for the duration of the show!
