Present Makers 2025

to

A leading exhibition in the UK’s craft calendar.

Present Makers 2025 features hand-crafted gift ideas showcasing the talent and innovation of contemporary craftspeople and design makers in the South West.

From open submissions, entries are selected to highlight the quality, variety and dynamism of local designer makers working across a range of materials: glass, jewellery, ceramics, textiles, prints and wood, as well as unique Christmas cards and decorations. All work is for sale.

THG is proud to support South West designer makers through our programme of selling showcases in the gallery and our gallery shop. We pride ourselves on working with and supporting our local artist community, celebrating the talent on our doorstep.

Shop local this Christmas and support local makers and small businesses!

Please join us for our exhibition opening on Saturday 8 November. Drop in anytime between 10am and 5pm to watch maker demos and enjoy mulled wine and a mince pie.
