Craft artists live a life rich in community, passing along traditions and building relationships with their environment and fellow artists. And what better to combine all this than food? Almost 35 years ago, the American Craft Council published A Craftsmen’s Cookbook. With this page, we continue that tradition.

When confronted with an overwrought desert, Winston Churchill is said to have exclaimed, “This pudding has no theme!” Not so, here: You’ll find recipes from dozens of artists in the spirit of coming together in the name of good food, good conversation, and good friendship. To which we can only add: Enjoy!
