Hothouse @Craft Council

Arts Thread is proud to be a partner of the Craft Council UK's Hothouse scheme.

Hothouse is a programme of support from the Crafts Council for emerging makers, providing focused, intensive business skills and creative development, complemented with 1:1 support over a six month period.

We take up to 40 new makers per annum across the UK, delivered in cohorts of 10 – this means participants are part of a valuable peer group and a wide national network at the same time.

Hothouse is open to any discipline; based in any region and from any educational background or training, both formal or informal. There is no age limit.

January to June 2014 sees Hothouse 4 cohorts in regions North, Midlands, South East and South West.

Read about the Hothouse 4 makers on our blog.
