Manchester Craft and Design Centre occupies a former fish market on Oak Street in the Northern Quarter. Working studios bring ceramics, jewellery, textiles and other contemporary crafts into a setting where you can see objects alongside the people who make them. Exhibitions and practical workshops give the visit another focus.
Browsing studios and attending a booked class are different kinds of outing. For a workshop, check the maker, technique and session requirements; for a browse, leave time to look closely and talk. Explore the dated programme here and join Gitch to find company for a creative afternoon.
