About Crafts Council Gallery

Step inside and the visitor is welcomed by a natural, daylight filled lobby separated from the event space by a glass window and an arch framed set of doors.

The walls are clay plastered and suitable for hanging. There is adjustable, museum quality track lighting installed by art lighting specialists, TM lighting.
To the side of the event space is a small break out or storage space. At the front end is a library area furnished by furniture maker, Sebastian Cox with chestnut lined walls complemented by ash shelving.
