Experience Craft in Sussex 20-28 June 2026

For ten days in June, Sussex becomes a living celebration of contemporary and heritage craft, making, and creative community.

Visit exhibitions, demonstrations, workshops, talks, markets, and special events across East and West Sussex. Hop onto a Studio Safari for exclusive tours to rarely open studios of famous artists and makers, spend the day exploring our Craft Towns: Arundel and Alfriston or admire top level skill at the Sussex Craft Awards in Petworth. Invest in contemporary craft at one of our MarketPlace events.

From ceramics and textiles, to woodwork, jewellery, glass, printmaking, basketry, furniture and furnishings, to experimental making, Sussex Craft Week brings together established makers, emerging talent, galleries, collectives, and curious visitors.
