O craft, all ye faithful!

About Me

The CHURCH OF CRAFT, Athens, Georgia, is one of many Church of Crafts located around the world. Our mission here in Athens, GA, is to gather people together in the spirit of creativity. We want to foster community harmony through interaction, communication, and education - and dammit, we wanna have fun while doing it! Our hope is that people will join us once a month to hang out and craft, create, make, and find inspiration...let us be inspired and let us inspire each other!

EVERYONE is welcome to join our monthly gatherings...so, come one, come all! The Church of Craft, Athens, is non-profit, non-denominational, and non-judgemental. We aren't here to preach at ya...we're not really religious...but we are SPIRITUAL, because the act of creating IS spiritual. Can we get an amen? Gatherings will be held at least once a month at X-RAY CAFE - "a new salon that plays host to artists in the new media, be it film, literature, music, or art" We can't think of a more better place to have our future get-togethers. Meetings are informal, and all are welcome to come and go as they please. Please check C.O.C.A.'s MySpace profile or Blogspot blog for information on gatherings and other local craft events:
