We are delighted to be taking a group of Guild members to The Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair in Manchester, from 16–18 October 2026. Now in its 19th year, this much-loved event brings together more than two hundred specially selected makers from across the UK.

Discover outstanding contemporary ceramics, jewellery, textiles, furniture, glass, wood, metalwork, printmaking, and sculpture. Meet the makers, hear the stories behind their work, and buy directly from the artists. Join in the free drop-in workshops.

You will find the Gloucestershire Guild stand upstairs on the balcony (Stand BALC05) in the magnificent Grade II* listed Victoria Baths.  Our participating craft makers are Rhian Wyman, Su Trindle, Louise Pocock, Helen Foot, Cate Fox, Emily-Kriste Wilcox, Francesca Chalk and Kevin Stamper

Also at the show with her own stand and a beautiful collection of rugs is Jessie James. Find her on stand C35 and follow her on instagram for updates @studiotuft 

We hope you can visit us for an inspiring day out of craft, design and creativity.
