"Supporting artists who have the ability to bring joy to our lives is an easy decision."
⎯ Jane Lewitt Taylor, ceramics collector
"Artists say, 'Exposure doesn't pay the bills' while this is mostly true, my reach and audience have grown so much since doing the Retail Feature [at Craft Ontario Shop]"
⎯ Olivia Mae Sinclair, artist
“I [work...] slowly and consistently stitching away, alone in my studio. Craft Ontario generously provided me with an opportunity to share the fruits of this labour with the wider community. Membership has its privileges!”
⎯ Jennifer Smith-Windsor, artist
