The Craft Cartel is about providing community support for makers of objects that don’t normally have a space within the retail sphere. We support crafters who use innovative techniques, recycled materials, make provocative statements or just crafters who don’t have the capacity to make a full time living out of making what they make. We recognise and seek to promote the value to our communities and our environment of buying interesting and wonderful handmade objects as opposed to mass produced plastic crap. We also see the importance of strong communities and we like to open the craft cartel experience to people of all walks of life. We do not subscribe to art wank and we are prone to ridiculing the pretentious.
