Endangered Craft

11 July – 6 September 2025

 

This show shines a light on heritage craft practices under threat as identified by Heritage Crafts, the national charity for traditional heritage crafts.

From blacksmithing to basketry, from weaving to woodturning, we have an incredible range of heritage craft skills in the UK and some of the best craftspeople in the world. But many of these skills are in the hands of individuals who have been unable to make provision to pass them on.

Endangered Craft is part of the Independents Biennial programme 2025

All work by the exhibiting makers will be available for sale and/or for commission.
