There's a treasure trove of original designs by the finest craftmakers and artists across the country on offer at this year's Craft In Focus show.

This will be the third time the event will have been held in the 125-acre grounds of picturesque Hever Castle, near Edenbridge, and will feature bespoke designs in everything ranging from textiles and paintings to metal, leather, ceramics, glass and jewellery.

The show comes to the castle on Thursday, September 9, until Sunday, September 12, with exhibitors showcasing their work in open-sided marquees with the backdrop of the historic castle, the childhood home of Anne Boleyn. Exhibitors have been selected from the UK’s finest designer makers and contemporary artists.

Organisers Maidstone-based Craft In Focus have always been at the forefront of promoting the best of the UK's designer makers.

Organiser Rob Chapman said: "Our event is a high quality contemporary craft fair and exhibitors and visitors appreciate the fact that we keep our standards high and have stuck with our principles of only allowing work made by the exhibitor to be presented - this has really set us apart from many other craft fairs."

Entry to the castle gardens also gives entry to the craft fair and readers quoting the discount code CRAFT2021 when booking in advance online can take advantage of a special offer of admission at the reduced price of £12.

All marquees will be floored and carpeted, with ramps, and will be semi open-sided.
