Artists, designers and makers working in all disciplines can test, showcase and engage with wider audiences at one of Scotland’s iconic exhibiting venues, The Royal Scottish Academy (RSA) on the Mound in Edinburgh.

The Craft Scotland Prize initially ran alongside Craft Scotland celebrates... showcase as part of Craft Scotland and Visual Arts Scotland’s ongoing partnership. This media-specific series was dedicated to exploring contemporary material practices and the creative energy that makers bring to different mediums. 

Previous Craft Scotland celebrates... showcases included a focus on contemporary practice in ceramics (2017), glass (2018) and wood (2019).
