Contemporary Craft Fellowship Scheme
Over the past 18 months I have had the pleasure of administrating the Contemporary Craft Fellowship for ArtsMatrix, in collaboration with the Crafts Council, Arts Council South West, and the Devon Guild of Craftsmen. This week sees the final culmination of this work in a exhibition RE:Route at the Devon Guild of Craftsmen, Bovey Tracey (14th March 26th April).
The scheme offered 5 craftspeople a bursary and mentor support, and each recipient interpreted the scheme in very different ways, to help them take their work to the next level.
For further details of the exhibition visit http://www.crafts.org.uk/index2.php?db=load&ftype=static&zend=1&uid=.
