Craft Contemporary, formerly the Craft and Folk Art Museum, is a non-profit, non-collecting arts museum dedicated to showcasing contemporary craft in Los Angeles, California. The museum is located on Los Angeles' Museum Row on Wilshire Boulevard, and across from the George C. Page Museum and La Brea Tar Pits. It is the only institution on the West Coast of the United States to focus exclusively on craft.

In addition to presenting exhibitions, Craft Contemporary is also well-known for its public programs catering to all ages, from family workshops to more intensive sessions for older adults.[1]
