As borders between fine art, design, and craft blur, the 75-year-old American Craft Council has evolved to showcase not only fine crafts but also modern home and fashion designs. Its annual show returns to St. Paul this month with an artful blend of handmade jewelry, clothing, furniture, and home décor for sale by more than 225 contemporary craft artists. A show highlight is “Make Room,” a series of stylish room vignettes created by local interior designers that puts craft into context. • craftcouncil.org
