Welcome to Cotswold Craftsmen

Cotswold Craftsmen & Artists

The Cotswold Craftsmen are a well established group founded in the late 1960’s. Our membership is drawn from in and around the beautiful Cotswold area and includes a rich cross section of highly skilled craftsmen, designers and artists.

We aim to promote innovative design and superb craftsmanship, producing contemporary and traditional original artworks.

The work of our talented members includes paintings, sculpture, ceramics, wood, jewellery, glass and enamel, to name just a few.

Who we are

Promoting high quality genuine craftsmanship

Members actively participate in the running of the Group and exhibit at a number of Cotswold Craftsmen events each year.

All work is original and hand made and we often demonstrate how we turn raw materials into fine art works wherever the venue permits.
