The traditional MKG Arts and Crafts Fair in Hamburg presents the finest contemporary crafts. This year the 130 year old museum fair – which belongs to the oldest of its kind in Germany – will take place from November 27 to December 6. It is being organized by the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe Hamburg and its sponsoring members. During the fair the Justus Brinckmann Prize endowed with 7.500 euros will be awarded: As part of the opening ceremony on Thursday, November 26, at 7 pm it will be handed over to the winner previously selected by the jury from the 66 participants of the fair. In 2014 Antje Dienstbir received the award for her elegant and useful cutlery made from silver and wood, in the previous year the prize went to ceramist Kiho Kang.
