Craftspace
Declaration
Craftspace is a charity creating opportunities to see, make and be curious about exceptional contemporary craft.
We champion the power of craft to change lives and communities. Our work builds relationships between artists, people and organisations and encourages the sharing of ideas, skills and knowledge. Craftspace initiates artistic programmes which stimulate creative excellence, critical thinking and understanding of contemporary crafts in the widest social and cultural contexts. With over 30 years’ experience, we continue to learn, push boundaries and challenge ideas. Based in Birmingham, we work collaboratively regionally, nationally and internationally. Craftivism and making can be used both individually and collectively for commoning actions to build co-operative communities and shared resources with an ethos of 'we're in this together'.
