The Auxiliary of NorthShore University Health System (NorthShore) at Evanston & Glenbrook Hospitals presents one of the most renowned craft shows in the nation the American Craft Exposition (ACE). Mark your calendars for this impressive juried exposition of handcrafted works of art which gives guests the opportunity to appreciate and purchase the work of more than 150 master craftspeople from across the country.
ACE is a nationally renowned exhibition and sale of fine craft where attendees can meet the artists behind the work. This show assembles the country's finest artists and more than a dozen emerging artists showcasing new achievements in metal, glass, furniture, jewelry, ceramics, fiber decorative, fiber wearable, leather, wood, mixed media and baskets.
ACE is the only volunteer-produced Exposition of its caliber in the country with more than 100 volunteers working year-round to present this amazing show.
This year's 27th annual show will be held at the Henry Crown Sports Pavilion on Northwestern University's campus in Evanston, Illinois beginning with the Preview Party on August 25, and continuing August 26-28. Funds raised at this year's exposition will support pioneering research being conducted at NorthShore that is already showing promising results in preventing ovarian cancer in at-risk women.
