the craft centre & design gallery
Established in 1982, our aim is to take you on a journey to experience the
talent, skill, originality and beauty of contemporary craft made by craftspeople
based in the UK today. To discover our story so far click here. For the past 40
years our seasonal exhibition programme has been bringing together the very best
of handmade contemporary jewellery, ceramics, limited edition prints, glass,
wood, textiles and works in mixed media exploring specific themes. We also
provide an ever changing selection of makers who support and enrich each main
exhibition. We support new and emerging makers as well as more established
makers and over our remarkably rich history we have introduced thousands of
talented individuals to visitors to the vibrant city of Leeds. Everything on
display is for sale so we're a retail space as well as a gallery environment for
you to take a mindful moment away from daily life. With work by over 300
designers on display at any one time you're sure to find what you're looking
for; whether it be for inspiration, gift buying or simply to while away a
peaceful lunch hour.
