Here are Keith's 5 Favourites

Christian O Reilly

Christian’s work is that of a true craftsperson. Simple, practical, and highly functional furniture that has a modernity to it which is timeless.

Sue Pryke

Sue’s work is simplicity, style, and practicality personified. Her work is meticulously finished which is in perfect harmony to the overall aesthetic.

Bonner Studio

With clean lines and form Bonner Studio successfully and beautifully bridge the gap between function, and high-end craft.

Judi Archer

Judi’s fabric designs are not only beautiful, but original for their simplicity. They seem to transcend a broad range of interior aesthetic

Virginia Graham

I love the detail and different decorative techniques that go into producing the work. I have a few of Virginia’s pieces and never tire of looking at them.

Meet Audrey, the Vintage Mobile Cinema

We’re so happy that once again this year at Craft Festival you’ll be able to visit our very special Craft Cinema. And Audrey has the most incredible history & story.
 
Audrey is the only survivor of seven vehicles that were custom built for the Ministry of Technology in the 60's.
 
Tony Benn, the Minister of Technology at the time, commissioned the busses and they travelled the country visiting factories showing short films about the new & upcoming technologies for British businesses to use
 
This incredible piece of cinematic and transport history will be home to our Craft Cinema in Bovey this June & each day there’ll be a full programme of short films about contemporary makers together with historical news clips from Pathé News
 
Will you be stepping inside Audrey to experience our special Craft Cinema?
