ONE-OF-A-KIND

We are thrilled to celebrate the remarkable dedication and generosity of Gwen and Jerry Paulson, esteemed members of the James Renwick Alliance for Craft. Their unwavering commitment to the arts has earned them the prestigious 2024 JRACraft One-of-a-Kind Award.

Gwen and Jerry's passion for nurturing talent and supporting American craft has left a significant mark on our organization and the wider craft community. They joined JRACraft in 1987, with Jerry assuming the role of president from 1989 to 1991. During his presidency, our well known Caucus Membership was founded and we hosted some of our earliest trips. Gwen has spent her time as a dedicated volunteer for JRACraft, hosting dozens of Spring Craft Weekend honorees and organizing countless events. The couple, avid glass and wood enthusiasts, have not only shared a passion for collecting but have also played a crucial role in the formation of the Alliance. Through their tireless efforts and extraordinary generosity they have empowered countless artisans to pursue their craft, directly supported the Renwick Gallery and upheld the legacy of JRACraft.

At our 2024 Spring Craft Weekend Gala the Paulsons were given the honor of receiving JRACraft One-Of-A-Kind Award, only given 10 previous times our 40 year history. Please join us in congratulating Gwen and Jerry Paulson for their outstanding contributions to the world of craft. We are profoundly grateful for their enduring support and honored to have them as valued members of our community.
