Story

The Crafts Council is changing. We want to transform the ground floor of our magnificent building in London into a new Home for Craft.   

We want craft to be accessible to everyone. To start new conversations. To inspire new makers, support our brightest talent and change the future of craft in the UK.

Our project is gaining momentum, and to date we have raised £168,000 towards our target of £500,000.Through this Just Giving Campaign we would like to raise a further £90,000 which will help us display our collections of national significance. Please help us make this project a reality. 

Visitors to our new home will be able to see objects from our Collections up close. Delve into our unique library of books and catalogues, discover new makers and see work from those they know already. Watch films, hear lectures, participate in workshops and salons. Sit quietly or mingle. Make our space their own.    

For makers, it will be a new space to showcase work and meet the craft community. For new audiences it will be a welcoming, relaxed place to explore and start a lifelong passion for craft. With our huge calendar of events, it will truly be a place for all.  

With your support, we can help shape the future of craft for everyone.
