The CoG Craft Insurgence!

The CoG Craft Insurgence is the flip side of Stitched to My Heart. It is a space for people to intern, take workshops, and sell their crafts through. All proceeds from the Craft Insurgence go to support the internship program as well as the other public benefit projects of CoG. Therefore you are strongly encouraged to increase your style points by shopping at our online store or Stop by on Saturdays from 1-5pm during The Craft Insurgence Shop Hours.

The CoG Craft Insurgence is bring the word local back! We utilize the modern tools of sewing machines and printing presses to insure our rigorous environmental and labor standards. Some of the artists we are currently representing are Sam MacKenzie, Kelly Short and Queer, Pee-Zees and Snee-Kees, Jack StockLynn, TransGenre and Smitty Amabilis. Commissions are sliding scale. Some items such as the zines we produce in house. To be considered please submit images of your work and a brief statement about yourself to cog@collectiveofgeniuses.org.
