For the oppor­tu­ni­ties this year that have allowed us to come together online and in-person, once again, to cele­brate all the wonder­ful things happen­ing in our community.

To every­one who nour­ished our vision to create, grow, and sustain our efforts so that gener­a­tions to come will benefit from the same support­ive commu­nity of makers.

We are sincerely grate­ful to you! 

The Furni­ture Society has been honor­ing and recog­niz­ing indi­vid­u­als or insti­tu­tions who have demon­strated outstand­ing achieve­ments and long­stand­ing commit­ment to the advance­ment of the art of furni­ture. The award cele­brates those who have had a profound impact on the field, and whose lives, work and efforts have strength­ened the fabric of the field and the Furni­ture Society’s community.
