I was disappointed at the small scale of this show, especially with a $15 price tag, plus an $8 parking fee. The "rooms" intended to display the crafts were tiny, there were very few of them, and most of them fairly impractical (a "butler's pantry?" a "wine vault?", a "library" without books?, a "studio" with a high-end desk and nothing else?). Neither the craft artists nor their work nor the idea of "incorporating craft" were shown to advantage. I'm curious as to others' reactions.
