Everyone seems to have someone on their gift-giving list who's difficult to buy for. A Friends of Indiana Artisan gift membership is an outstanding choice for that person. Each year, Friends receive complimentary admission to our Marketplaces, invitations to at least three small-group events in artisan studios or kitchens (such as the recent visit to Nancy Keating's studio where each person made a mosaic coaster), and occasional special offers in our stores. Giving a membership demonstrates how much you value the people and stories behind fine, handcrafted work and how you embrace a culture of true Hoosier craftsmanship.

Memberships can be purchased for one or two people, for one year or two. Click here to get started on gifts that fit every size, don't have to be wrapped and will be appreciated well into the new year: https://indianaartisan.org/friends-of-indiana-artisan-membership/
