A celebration of
modern craft
​
Craft Show is a celebration of modern craft. Through a series of engaging exhibitions and workshops Craft Show elevates craft and craftspeople, giving them the space and focus they deserve.
Founded by two female makers in South East London in 2017, Craft Show is run for makers, by makers. We forge lasting connections between makers and their audiences, creating the opportunity to engage with the handmade in person at our exhibitions, workshops and talks.
​
Craft Show hosted ambitious exhibitions showcasing the work of 50 makers at Copeland Gallery in Peckham over London Craft Week 2017, 2018 and 2019. From the winter of 2019 to today Craft Show continues to host exhibitions in different galleries across London.
Craft Show’s exhibitions celebrate the work of talented artist makers and craftspeople working in craft today with handmade objects curated into thoughtful still-lifes, mixing medias and makers, as you might in your own home. Our shows always have a strong storytelling element, using craft objects and textiles, floristry and exciting exhibition design to play with current themes in craft.
Workshops are an integral part of what we do at Craft Show. They are at the heart of our exhibitions, bringing making into the gallery space, making sure it’s alive with the hum of conversations and craftspeople sharing their skills. Alongside our exhibitions, we now host a series of workshops exploring craft, creativity and community throughout the year, including Craft Class and Craft Crits.
Our monthly newsletter explores makers, crafty things to do and see alongside our own thoughts about current creative topics. Make sure to sign up to hear more and find out about out next events.
