70 Years of Making Opening Event

Venue: MAKE Southwest, Riverside Gallery
Celebrating the History of Devon Guild of Craftsmen
From its humble beginnings in 1955 to its place today as a hub for contemporary craft, this exhibition tells the story of the Guild through objects, photographs, and archival material, revealing not just the story of an organisation, but of a wider movement: one that champions the handmade, values skill and innovation, and places craft at the centre of cultural life.
Please join us and The Rt Hon Sir Mel Stride as we open this special exhibition honouring 70 years of creativity, community, and craftsmanship.
Exhibition runs 12 July – 18 October 2025
