Mission Statement
"The UC Davis Craft Center provides students and the other members of the University community the means to achieve a balance between the rigors of the academic and work environments and the need for creative expression."

The Craft Center
Experience new growth at the Craft Center. We offer more than 100 classes, ranging from one-day workshops to seven-week courses. Our classes are small, providing lots of hands-on experience. We provide a comfortable atmosphere that encourages you to develop your creative skills. After developing a skill, you may use our facilities on your own time with Day Use or Quarter Use passes.

The Craft Center houses ten different fully-equipped studios where you can pursue your chosen craft. The studios include all of the major equipment you will need, and you can use additional tools and supplies that are available for check out at our front desk. Studios include ceramics, woodworking, glass, flameworking, jewelry, screenprinting, welding, photography, arts and crafts, and textiles (sewing, weaving and dyeing).

All of our studios are available for use whenever classes are not in session. If you are already skilled in a craft area, then you can buy a Day Use Pass or a Quarter Use Pass to use the facility. After the fifth week of the quarter, you may purchase a quarter pass at a reduced rate. If you register for a class that includes a class pass for a studio, you may purchase a quarter pass to use additional studios for 30 percent off the regular price. Studios require an orientation before use for the first time. Call for more information.
