Craft Hub is a European project co-funded by the Creative Europe Programme focused on Craft in the context of cultural heritage and its continuing relevance in contemporary practice.
The project activities involve investigating and documenting craft skills and processes; their differing application in creative practice across Europe; and questions of cultural specificity & individual motivations of practitioners.
This will be addressed through a comprehensive and exciting program to allow the creation of new craft work and experimental investigations into process and material. All supported by 42 transnational maker residencies, 305 days of outreach work, 1 festival, 7 exhibitions and 2 conferences. The project will build a comprehensive materials library to demonstrate the diversity of material effects achievable through Craft processes. All activity will build towards the creation of an online platform to serve as a repository for Craft knowledge and skills and to facilitate the sharing of resources.
