It’s
nearly that time of year again and we’re planning your Christmas shopping!
We’re excited to announce that we’ve teamed up with our neighbours, The Goldsmiths’ Centre, to bring you an
additional venue full of design talent to enjoy at the next Made in Clerkenwell event (28 Nov - 1 Dec 2013). New for
winter 2013, explore Craft Central’s 2 fascinating Victorian studio buildings in
the heart of creative Clerkenwell as well as an indoor design market in the
beautiful Goldsmiths’ Centre. All 3 venues are located within convenient
strolling distance, just 2 minutes away from each other.
Avoid the high street
and opt for handmade! Shop for ready-to-buy fashion, jewellery, accessories,
ceramics, printmaking, illustration and interior products by 150 selected UK
designer-makers. Choose a gift, commission a unique piece,
find a bespoke design service or just browse... Whether you
can spare an hour or a whole day, mingle with the makers in the studios where
they work their magic. One ticket allows unlimited access over 4 days,
including Thursday’s launch event and Friday’s late night shopping.
Don’t miss Look Mum No Hands
serving up locally roasted Squaremile coffee, home-made cakes, savoury treats
and locally brewed craft beer, The Wedding Smashers on the decks and festive flowers from Flor Unikon.
