About this Event

Craft and Kitsch – So Good That It’s BAD**

**“wonderful; deeply satisfying; stunningly attractive or stylish”

Has the pandemic left you with the need for some comic relief? Join the Alberta Craft Council for a virtual presentation and discussion about Kitsch! Craft Scholar and Historian Jennifer Salahub will present a brief history of the topic.

Following Jennifer's presentation there will be time for a Q&A period, and for questions pertaining to the Alberta Craft Council's call to artists for our upcoming Kitsch exhibition, to be displayed in the Edmonton Feature Gallery.

Share a laugh with us and dive into the world of Kitsch made manifest, as we prepare to deck the gallery with Craft so gaudy, ostentatious, flashy, tacky, trite, sentimental, melodramatic, and overdone that it will take your breath away.
