Celebrating Excellence - Black Artisans Exhibition

Join us at The Howarth Art Gallery for the launch of the Black Artisans exhibition which celebrates a rare and diverse collection of talents across various artisan disciplines ranging from clay, metal, and wood, to ceramics and glassworks, featuring both traditional and cultural formats.

Curated by social documentary photographer Jo Sealy, "The Black Artisans" exhibition spotlights exceptional artisans, demonstrating a breadth of skills rarely seen together. Each artist brings a unique perspective and technique, creating a vibrant tapestry of craftsmanship that celebrates the richness of Black British artisanal heritage.

The Haworth Art Gallery, known as one of Lancashire’s finest Arts & Crafts houses, provides a fitting venue for this inspiring showcase which will be available to view until Sunday 6th October 2024.

A series of connected talks and events will be hosted during the exhibition run. Find out more here. These Black Artisans events form part of Creative Lancashire's curated programme of events and presentations for Black History Month
