You don’t have to wait for Craftcation to roll aro You don’t have to wait for Craftcation to roll around to get crafty!

Our team has been getting together, going on field-trips or just outings around town. This was our outing to The Hospital of Emotions, with highlights of some of our favorite rooms. But you don’t have to wait to hang with us in March.

You can organize a hang too, check out our Neighborhood Hangs, quarterly dates (times up to the host) all over the place hosted by a Craftcation attendee and posted about on our website and socials. We gather the RSVP’s so the hosts know what to expect and you get a creative recharge. These quarterly hangs don’t have to require admission or a fancy setting, backyards, cafes or parks are all welcome. Become a host wherever you are, and don’t worry if you are the only Craftcation’er in your county, crafty neighbors who haven’t been to Craftcation are welcome! Host form can be found in our link tree.

There’s something magic about Craftcation. It’s no There’s something magic about Craftcation. It’s not in the classes or the swag or even the crafts. It’s you.

Time and time again we hear it- this community is something special. Brilliantly creative and unique folks coming from all different backgrounds and walks of life to form a beautiful patchwork of humanity, creating and taking risks together.

Introducing the Craftcation Craft-firmations! Our Craft-firmations are the promises we make to ourselves and to each other to create the best environment for that magic to thrive. Thanks to our Hospitality Team for helping us create them.

You’re at Craftcation having the time of your life You’re at Craftcation having the time of your life, and it hits you, you’ve found your people.

Craftcation isn’t just a business expense or a crafty vacation it’s a community of people who come together for one weekend a year and say yes to the mess. The messy feelings, the messy arts, the mess of being human. One of the ways we support our attendees is through things like the Hospitality team, a group of gems who know a thing or two about a thing or two and want to share. 

Meet this year’s team of Ambassadors and Co-Hosts, check out the Ambassadors area of interest and give them a follow. Then get ready for more community announcements all this week (did you add us to your favorites yet). This might just be the post to share with your intrepid crafty friends to show them what Craftcation is all about.

It’s not the opening of a very craft based horror It’s not the opening of a very craft based horror movie, it’s Supporting Hospitality And Real Connection (SHARC) Week! (No we don’t have a thing for sharks, we just really wanted the acronym to work.)

More than the classes, the crafts, or the beach, the magic of Craftcation is in the community and we’re finding new ways for folks to build connections with each other- both in Ventura and at home.

We’re introducing these updates over a week because there is a tidal wave of goodness, but if you add us to your favorites you can be in that front row seat, splash zone style.

No crafts were harmed in the filming of this video. Staring (in no particular order):

What happens when the pool closes but you’re not r What happens when the pool closes but you’re not ready for the creative flow to slow?

Craftcation is one big crafty party, and we’d love Craftcation is one big crafty party, and we’d love to have your help hosting! 

Our new Hospitality team comes in two flavors with perks, Co-host and Ambassador. But Applications close Aug. 19th so don’t wait if you hear the call, apply by commenting PEOPLE!

Co-hosts are friendly faces in the crowd who keep the community engaged and connected online throughout the year, and help attendees feel welcome at Craftcation. 
Ambassadors help represent Craftcation and take on everything Co-hosts do, plus a focus area or special project of their own to help improve the attendee experience.

Don’t worry if you are more of a behind the scenes person the Affiliate program and Crew are also still open, check those out on our website.

Some of the best magic at Craftcation doesn’t happ Some of the best magic at Craftcation doesn’t happen on the main stage, though there are some pretty epic special events — it happens when another attendee makes you feel like you have found your community when you walk in the room.

That’s the Hospitality Team’s whole job. And for 2027, we want YOU.

Perks range from 20% off your ticket all the way up to 100% off depending on your role — plus swag, affiliate access, and a chance to win a free ticket next year. 

More of a shy shouter of the Craftcation fun, our affiliate program might be more your speed — your own link, your own commission, your socials and socializing your way. 

Copy and paste the links in the caro or comment PEOPLE or SHY.
This is for the ones who like to craft, some have This is for the ones who like to craft, some have businesses related to creative some don’t, but they all have a one thing in common.  CRAFT. 

If this is you let me share about, 5 days by the beach. 200+ workshops. 500+ creatives who get it.

It’s part business, part craft retreat, part recharge—and all the things you didn’t know you needed.

Comment CRAFTY and I’ll DM you the link to check it out, or CCLIST to join the mailing list.

March 31 - April 4, 2026

We want you there, follow and share with someone YOU want there.
