Craft Scotland will return to Collect, the international art fair for modern craft and design, in 2022.

We will showcase a collection of ambitious new work from 11 of Scotland’s most talented makers. Collectors, curators and visitors from the UK and abroad will have the opportunity to engage with exceptional works in silversmithing & goldsmithing, furniture making, ceramics and woodworking, textiles and blacksmithing. 

Organised by the Crafts Council, previous editions of Collect have been held at Somerset House in London and online through Artsy. 

In 2021, Collect featured 32 international galleries representing 400 artists from 35 nations, spanning from the UK to Senegal, Japan to the USA. Over 1,300 artworks were available to purchase in this year’s digital edition, with Collect being one of the most visited fairs on Artsy.net – proof of the growing appetite for contemporary craft.

For 2022, Collect plans to return to London’s Somerset House in late February.
