Call for submissions: Heritage Craft Prize

Nest’s Heritage Craft Prize celebrates Texan artists and craftspeople who are blazing their own trail by reimagining heritage craft techniques through the use of innovative motifs and materials.

Makers, artists, and craftspeople living and producing in Texas are encouraged to enter a submission that demonstrates their technical mastery, as well as a thoughtful connection to cultural tradition through a singular, one-of-a-kind handcrafted piece.

Now in its third year, the Heritage Craft Prize is intended to provide the winner with financial resources to advance their craft pursuits and/or craft-based business. One winner will receive a grand prize of $25,000 with additional grant funding awarded to four finalists.

Applications will be accepted through June 30, 2025.
