Flight of The Craftship

The Craftship

The Craftship is about to take off!

We have been a base in Kent for creative businesses to sell their creations in a bricks and mortar shop or with us online at Made in Ashford, since 2015. All run by us, Craftship Enterprise CIC. Here you can find handmade and locally designed goodies in a fun, welcoming and inclusive space.

Launching now is The Craftship, the newest addition to the fleet - our creative hub. This space will hold creativity in different forms through a dynamic series of workshops, galleries/pop up space and community groups.

We believe

We believe:

  • In supporting each other.
  • Looking after the environment is important.
  • Creativity brings people together.
  • Sharing skills and knowledge improves us all.

Take me to your leader!

We are looking for workshop leaders. Are you a creator looking to share your skills with others! We believe in "learn, create, share" so much we had it printed on our windows! We feel that it is important to learn creative skills, put them into practise and then share them. That is why we are offering a downstairs, accessible space for creatives to hold workshops.

If you run a creative community group you too can get involved and use the space or if you can think of any other use and want more info click here.

Showcase & tell

The main space in the Craftship is a gallery/pop up space which will be dedicated to showcasing the talents of artists, creators, community groups and small businesses . The space can be manipulated and change to suit what you want to show off, we hold props, plinths and tables that you can borrow too.

If you are interested in using this space as a showcase of your work we are very open to ideas for its use.
