Crafts presents their Christmas Crafts Book Club with Alexander Langlands to discuss his new book.
About
For our special Christmas Crafts Book Club we’ve invited archaeologist, historian and TV presenter Alexander Langlandsto discuss his new book Craeft: How traditional crafts are about more than just making. The title, published by Faber & Faber, mounts a passionate argument for the renewed importance of making in the modern world. From weaving and bee-keeping to thatching and basket-making, this book will convince readers – for their health, wealth and well-being – to introduce more cræft into their lives.
After the discussion there will be time for questions from the audience, a signing session, and a free drink or two.
We aim to ensure that everyone has equal access to our events. If you have any access needs, please email e_penny@craftscouncil.org.uk by 30th November so that arrangements can be made. The talk will be held at the Moroso and Fontana Arte showroom which has a lift to the basement.
