The Event
Set to take place during London Craft Week 2024, this three-day, free to attend live event will host the very best of arts, crafts, and design from all corners of the craft sector and will celebrate niche craftmanship that is in danger of being lost to time.
With a strong focus on British craftsmanship, the exhibition hopes to generate business for crafts people whose skills are little known and attract the next generation of crafts people to future proof some of the world’s oldest practices.
