As a noun, the word "craft" used to indicate folkloric creations like whittled wood figurines and painted porcelain. These days, the word has become an active verb — there are crafting circles and a crafting media. In this provocative lecture that's free to the public, Jennifer Scanlan, associate curator of the Museum of Arts & Design in New York, highlights the changing nature of the craft world, which is embracing modern innovation while attempting to hold on to tradition.
