The Contemporary Crafts Network

Yarrow Gallery is hosting for the first time The Contemporary Crafts Network exhibition of arts and crafts professional working and exhibiting in Lincolnshire and beyond. The group was formed 30 years ago and has been working together.

It was originally called Lincolnshire and Humberside Contemporary Crafts. Its aim was to create a self-supporting exhibition group. Over time they achieved  considerable success exhibiting not only across the East Midlands but also in Europe. They changed their name to reflect wider area they covered.

Age is not an issue for this group. You can see paintings produced by talented new graduates  to skilled craftspeople who are specialists in their chosen fields. At the exhibition you can see a wide range of materials, different subject matter, contemporary and experimental pieces. The materials used for their art work include ceramics, glass, wood, metal, including jewellery made of silver. It also has items made of material such as felt and fabric art.

The members tend to develop new themes using different methods for their own individual interpretation.

As a visitor you will see a collection of unique and finely crafted items. You will also have a chance to purchase new work.
