Shop American Handcrafted is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded by Jacqueline Adamany to help independent American artists build stronger, more sustainable businesses.
Creating exceptional work is one skill. Learning how to price it, present it, reach buyers, explore wholesale, and grow a lasting business requires an entirely different kind of support. Through education, advocacy, visibility, and access to opportunity, we are working to give artists practical ways to move their businesses forward.
Our mission also includes helping consumers recognize the skill, value, and human connection behind handcrafted work. When more people understand why handcrafted matters, the entire community becomes stronger.

Practical learning can help artists strengthen their businesses, become wholesale ready, and make more confident decisions.
Artists need meaningful ways to be seen, connect with buyers, and access opportunities that support long-term growth.
We help people understand the skill, creativity, and human story behind work made by independent American artists.
