CREATED. Contemporary & Heritage Crafts Festival

The Big Sheep introduces a curated craft and art festival, featuring makers and artists from Devon and beyond will be exhibiting their unique work, running bookable workshops and drop-in taster sessions. Meet makers and artists and learn about their craft at this event taking place on 20th & 21st September. Meet Victoria Owen our event artist, her beautiful artwork will be on display around the event and on her stand.

This year’s featured material is clay, a nod to the North Devon’s pottery heritage. Fittingly Westcountry Potters Association have a dedicated area to exhibit members work, showing the versatility of this medium through displays of both functional and decorative wares.

Devon based arts organisations The Burton Gallery, Studio Kind and London House Gallery will be joining the celebration which will feature work from over 120 creatives. Excitingly the outdoor space at this venue offers opportunities for Raku and smoke firing demonstrations and a working blacksmith artist forge.

Evolving Events will add chilled festival vibes with busking musicians and staged performances by local musicians including Amantia Grove and a programme of talks and discussions based on creativity. Some artists and activities may be subject to change.

Come and join the celebration in this beautiful area of North Devon.
