Corporate partnerships
Working in partnership with the Crafts Council demonstrates leadership and will set you apart in aligning you with contemporary craft; the fastest growing and most exciting of the cultural sectors.
Nurturing and supporting creative skills, our areas of expertise span from education, new talent, thought leadership and debate to international art fairs and national collections. Therefore, the Crafts Council will surprise you in offering many opportunities to map against objectives and create long lasting, impactful and beneficial relationships.
