Hello!
Founded in September 2008, the Nottingham Craft Mafia is the latest addition to the Craft Mafia familia. Inspired by the success of other branches in the UK – we realised, as a young creative city, Nottingham was prime for the taking! If you’re on the look out for something unique, contemporary and (most importantly) handmade – look no further. The NCM family represents a wide range of craft disciplines; from jewellery and fashion to prints and home accessories. Products are available through members’ websites, etsy shops and also at our craft fayres and markets.
The Nottingham Craft Mafia is part of the larger Craft Mafia familia founded in Austin, Texas. The Craft Mafia serves as a model for independent business owners to assemble with other like-minded folk in their own communities to amplify their vision through the power of a collective. See craftmafia.com and austincraftmafia.com for more information.
Our Manifesto:
- Bringing like-minded makers and artists from Nottingham together at last!
- Sharing a wealth of expertise and experience, helping each other turn hobbies into careers.
- Marketing and promoting craft in the region together with the help of our website and fayres.
- Supporting other local independent groups and businesses – we won’t step on anyone’s toes.
- Inspiring a whole new generation to pick up their pens, felt, knitting needles, thread or whatever they fancy to create something new, unique and handmade.
