In July, the UK woke up to the first Labour government in 15 years. Ahead of the party's first conference since taking power, we invite a panel of makers to discuss what public policies the craft sector needs to flourish and what the Crafts Council could do to support it. Hear the discussion and contribute your thoughts during this online talk.
The panel will be chaired by Crafts Council executive director Natalie Melton and the rest of the speakers will be announced soon. This is the first in a new series of Crafts talks and articles called Making It, focused on the future of the craft sector and professional practice.
We're delighted to invite Crafts members of all tiers to book their complimentary ticket now. With membership, you have free access to this talk and the recording of it afterwards, as well as our future and past events, all online content, the print edition of Crafts, 299 previous issues in our digital archive and much more.
Your friends can buy tickets to attend the talk for £8, when they go on general release next week.
This is an online event that will take place via Zoom on Wednesday, 11 September, 17:30-18:00. The talk will be be auto-subtitled, and the recording will be available on the Crafts Membership Community page for members to enjoy after the event.
