Sounds interesting

The capital is set to get crafty with the arrival of London Craft Week, taking place 13 – 19 May. This year the event is celebrating its 10th birthday and there’s plenty of fun lined up, from a “secret” ceramics auction to a showcase of textile artistry from the Global South.

There will also be a special Crafts party where we’ll be celebrating the release of our Spring/Summer 2024 issue and launching our much-anticipated This Country programme, in which we’ll be looking into the relationship between England and craft.
