Who is?

Who is at Craftworks?

Barry is our chairman, but what I really want to know is. . . .

. . . just exactly what is he doing in his ‘action shot’.

I’ll have to wait until Craftworks to find out #MeettheMaker.

Come and find out for yourself next weekend 21st & 22nd October, Elmslie House, Malvern.

Christmas means Craftworks

 

The Guild’s very own Craftworks is just 15 days away.
Come and meet the makers, chat with the craftsmen, discuss with the designers!

In the lovely relaxed setting of Elmslie House, Malvern, you’ll find time & space to browse 16 outstanding exhibits across ceramics, print, jewellery and more. And you can be assured everything is locally made, by hand, by the actual people you meet. #Shoplocal #Handmade #designermakerartist.
We love to talk about what we do!

The in house cafe, serving delicious, homemade light bites and moreish cakes, will be open during our show.
So, make time to visit, relax and enjoy.
And, perhaps, start ticking off those unique, rather special presents for loved ones this Christmas.

Entry is Free!
