Applications were invited from both UK and international designer-makers of contemporary craft wishing to exhibit at Origin 2008.

Origin: The London Craft Fair, was launched in 2006, replacing the Chelsea
Crafts Fair as the UK’s principal selling event for individual designer-makers. In 2007 there were more than 20,000 visits to Origin and the event attracted 316 exhibitors across two weeks.

Now in its third year, Origin is an exceptional opportunity for makers to showcase and sell the very best in contemporary craft, directly to the public.

Week One 7 to 12 October 2008
Week Two 14 to 19 October 2008
