FREE Craftsmas Open House in Gustav Stickley’s Log House
Decorated based on Gustav Stickley’s own ideas about the holidays as told through articles published in his magazine, The Craftsman, the Log House will be decked out for the holiday season in period Arts & Crafts style! In The Craftsman, Stickley advocated for the use of natural decorations, promoted products and projects as appropriate and thoughtful gifts–from pottery to furniture to hand-made toys–and made recommendations for keeping the spirit of Christmas, both commercially and philosophically.

Holiday Shopping in The Craftsman Shop
While you’re visiting, The Craftsman Shop promises a wonderful selection of contemporary Arts & Crafts and seasonal gifts, and decorations to tickle your nose and delight your homes. Featuring many custom items, including a Motawi Tileworks Christmas Tree Tile in an exclusive colorway.

Crafts-Mas Photo Station & Photo Scavenger Hunt
Keep a memory of your visit to the museum with a few Craftsmas photos at the Craftsmas Photo Station. Families are also welcome to participate in the Photo Scavenger Hunt, which highlights objects from the museum’s collection that would have been enjoyed during Christmas celebrations of the time.

Make a Clay Tile
We warmly welcome visitors of all ages to join us in the Education Center in creating their own clay tile based on the colors, textures, and symbols of the winter season. Get your hands dirty at our craft table and let your creativity shine!
