Womencrafts Provincetown

Womencrafts is one of Provincetown’s most important lesbian institutions, a lesbian-owned and operated feminist book and gift shop that has been part of the town since 1976. Located at 376 Commercial Street in the East End, it is much more than a shop, with a long-standing role as a community hub for activism, events and lesbian visibility in P-Town.

Inside, you will find books, art, gifts and feminist merchandise, while the store also hosts readings, community gatherings and special events. Womencrafts is especially prominent during major women-focused weeks in Provincetown and is a useful stop if you want a sense of the town’s lesbian history.
