August Craft Month
About August Craft Month
August Craft Month is an opportunity to celebrate craft and design across the island of Ireland throughout August.
From workshops, exhibitions, fun festivals, insightful talks and tutorials, there are unique opportunities for everyone to get involved in August Craft Month this year.
The countdown is on to August Craft Month, a celebration of vibrant local craft in Ireland across the entire month. The programme includes a whole host of unique events, with this year bringing together more people than ever before.
Thanks to a unique initiative involving Design & Crafts Council Ireland, Craft NI and Cork Craft & Design, everyone can get involved in August Craft Month this summer, with unmissable opportunities to experience, participate in, support, buy and learn about the stand-out craft sector across the island.
There is a packed programme of over 200 eclectic events in all corners of the island, from workshops, exhibitions, fun festivals, insightful talks and tutorials. People can immerse in creative craft celebrations on their doorstep, as well as hit the road on a craft inspired adventure or staycation.
Showcasing the growing creative talent on the island, the initiative will allow people uncover rich craft stories and hear from renowned Irish makers known across the globe, as well as new undiscovered creatives making waves in the local craft world.
There are hands-on events from a diverse range of craft disciplines, from ceramists, textile makers, glassblowers, jewellery makers and many more. Makers such as Joe Hogan, Jim Turner, Scott Benefield and Andrea Spencer will all be involved in the celebration, to name a few.
Craft NI, Design & Crafts Council Ireland and Cork Craft & Design have come together to deliver the largest August Craft Month to date, across all corners of the island.
