Under the Tree: Open Call for Exhibitors

Under the Tree offers visitors high quality handmade crafts - an inspiring alternative to the larger high street and online retailers - supporting makers, as well as our craft education charity. We welcome applications from UK-based designer-makers and are looking for: beautifully crafted work in a range of prices/sizes; batch-produced or one-of-a-kind work that is ready to display; a variety of craft media; makers with a strong social media presence, who will reciprocate promotion.

Exhibition dates: 24 October 2026 - 9 January 2027
