We are very fortunate in our talented Crafts team, all of whom are qualified and skilled makers.
Each has either experience of working with children or as artists in residence with young people at universities and colleges.
We have access to a working pottery and contacts with many crafters throughout the UK.
Therefore, we are able to offer children and their families diverse experiences across all Crafts areas.
