And tomorrow, join the participatory workshop to create your own ceramic piece inspired by contemporary life and contribute to a collective time capsule project.

Heritage crafts at the core of the day!
Words cannot describe how proud we are to have hosted such a wonderful event in collaboration with @heritagecrafts the @theleathersellers and @saddlerscompany.saddlershall for @londoncraftweek this year.
From the beautiful pieces contributed to the auction, to the makers who spoke about their work, to those who gave demonstrations and answered questions. We were thrilled to see so many showing an interest and especially grateful to those who bid on the silent auction.
We ended the day with some inspiring speeches and hope to keep the conversation going.

Across this week there are a series of demonstrations, artist talks, and micro-workshops to explore; discover how communities preserve heritage while reimagining it for the future. Don't miss out!

Rain on the forecast? Consider it your cue to linger a little longer…
This weekend at London Craft Week, there are plenty of beautiful places to duck inside, dry off, and discover something extraordinary - from woven worlds and textile installations to ceramics, exhibitions, workshops and hidden craft gems across the city.
Make a rainy-day route of it:
• Step inside the textile arch taking shape at Leighton House
• Take refuge at Nobu with Yuki Aruga's beautiful Flowers' Shadow exhibition
• Warm up with contemporary craft at Mythology and Avant Craft
• Head west to Pitzhanger Manor where two LCW exhibitions mean double the reason to visit
• Spend time with Vigour & Skills makers at Museum of the Home
• And if you’re looking for something hands-on, the V&A’s SK Cairo Tentmakers workshop on Saturday still has space - an incredible chance to learn from master artisans
Proof that a little rain only makes wandering London’s craft scene feel even more cinematic
