The Craft Council of BC (CCBC) is a meeting place, a resource center, part of a movement, an important part of Vancouver’s culture and structurally, is a charitable non-profit in the arts sector. Historically, our organization has had three spaces that we work through: our offices, a social enterprise, and a gallery.
