Partners

Our partners provide valuable support to the contemporary craft sector, working alongside us on programmes including ArtFund Collect and Craft Club.

• Art Fund Collect

  Art Fund Collect, launched in 2008, is a partnership between the Crafts Council and the Art Fund, the national fundraising charity for works of art. Over four years to 2011, the Art Fund has contributed over £200,000 to public collections to enable them to acquire ambitious, international work shown at Collect.
  
  We are very grateful to the Art Fund for its support in making outstanding examples of contemporary craft accessible to audiences across the UK.

• Craft Club

  Craft Club is a national initiative in partnership with the UK Handknitting Association and working with the National Federation of Women’s Institutes to enable children and young people to lean craft skills in schools and community settings.
  
  We are very grateful to all these organisations for their generous support of these programmes.
  
  Over the next two years, Craft Club will receive additional support from Arts Council England as part of its Arts Nation programme.
