ABOUT US

Vale Makers is a group of craftspeople based in the rural Vale of Glamorgan, representing a wide range of craft disciplines from ceramics and glass to wood and textiles. It was formed to promote and showcase the work of independent makers through organising events such as Makers Markets and an annual Craft Festival, and also as a support network for craftspeople working in rural communities.

If you are a maker based in the rural Vale and would like to apply to join Vale Makers, your work must be of a high standard and made from raw materials.  Please contact us via email at hello@valemakers.org for further information.
