Over two days, you will hear insightful talks and dynamic panel discussions, which will focus on key themes affecting the craft world today. We are delighted to announce artist/jeweller Felieke van der Leest from Norway as a keynote speaker, who will bring her unique international perspective to Scotland.

Our popular hands-on workshops are back, along with the opportunity to engage with the National Museum of Scotland exhibitions and brush up on your practical business skills.

This is the perfect opportunity for you to meet and exchange ideas with fellow makers and specialists. The Craft Scotland Conference has plenty of occasions for networking including a dedicated evening social event on Thursday 7 June. 

Stay tuned, more details of our exciting conference programme to come! We have lots of exciting speakers from home and abroad to be announced. Plus, more details about the break-out sessions and the social event coming soon.
