The 16th Jiangsu Arts and Crafts Expo 2025

As the annual highlight of Jiangsu's arts and crafts industry, the 16th Jiangsu Arts and Crafts Expo will take place from November 7 to 9, 2025, at the Nanjing International Expo Center. This grand event is organized by the Jiangsu Arts and Crafts Industry Association and the Jiangsu Arts and Crafts Society, with the aim of comprehensively showcasing the achievements in the preservation, inheritance, and innovative development of crafts in the province, while also serving as a platform for industry exchange to foster craftsmanship and talent development.

Since its inception in 2010, the Jiangsu Arts and Crafts Expo has successfully held fifteen editions, each occupying an exhibition area of 15,000 square meters, attracting nearly a thousand exhibitors and artisans. The expo sets over 500 international standard booths and has become the most influential brand exhibition in Jiangsu’s arts and crafts sector.

This year's expo will prominently feature exquisite traditional crafts such as purple clay teapots, embroidery, jade carvings, and lacquerware, while also showcasing innovative outcomes like digital intangible cultural heritage. Through specialized exhibitions, skill demonstrations, and academic discussions, the expo aims to further push for high-quality development in the arts and crafts industry and strongly support the implementation of rural revitalization strategies. We cordially invite all sectors of society to visit and witness the path of inheritance and innovation in Jiangsu’s arts and crafts.
