Cork Craft Month designed to get you buying

FOR the inevitable rainy days that speckle our otherwise sunny summer, Cork Craft Month kicks off on Tuesday next and runs through to September 5 at venues throughout the city and county.

Run by Cork Craft and Design, a collective of around 100 makers who live and work in Cork, the month-long programme of events is a mix of opportunities to look, touch or buy anything from furniture and ceramics to textiles and jewellery.

Kicking off the month is the flagship exhibition MOTIVE which takes place in the James O’Neill Building (formerly The Old Mill), Kinsale, from August 14 -15.. A variety of craft will be on show focusing on makers’ inspiration..
