The Grodin Permanent Collection Museum

The history of craft comes alive in our Craft Museum, named in honor of Edith Grodin, a dedicated patron and supporter for more than 35 years. Visitors will marvel at the extraordinary array of craft pieces from the League’s early years to the present, including masterworks from world-renowned craftspeople such as master potters Mary and Edwin Scheier and Vivika and Otto Heino, and woodcrafters Melvin and Mark Lindquist.

Stop by our Concord headquarters and tour the museum or view the collection online and learn how craft has evolved.

If you are interested in donating a piece of fine craft to the Grodin Permanent Collection Museum, please contact us at (603) 224-3375.
