United States
Located in a renovated department store in Centre City Charlotte, this museum is one of the few in the country to focus on contemporary craft.
From glass, to ceramics, fibre, wood and metal, all the stars (and those up and comers) in the craft world are exhibited here.
The museum traces the history of craft from the 19th Century to today's modern industrial design.
Don't forget that the entry ticket can be used for free entry to the Mint Museum of Art.
Admission is free on Tuesday from 10am-2pm and the third Thursday of the month from 5-8pm.
