Great & Small: Crafted Creatures
21 June - 6 September 2025
An exhibition for children and families selected from the Crafts Council collections.
Animals have been represented in craft for as long as humans have been making, shaping, and creating decorative objects. Great & Small encourages children and families to explore our old-age fascination with all creators great and small through over 30 objects selected from the Crafts Council Collection.
Featuring works in clay, wood, metal, glass and textiles, the exhibition engages young minds with contemporary craft by introducing them to the many ways in which the natural world has inspired makers and the materials and techniques they have used to depict it.
Great & Small is a Crafts Council Touring Exhibition developed in partnership with Broadway Gallery and curated by Laura Dennis.
