Together with partner Dutch Design Foundation, Crafts Council Nederland has been putting the spotlight on making for years. With the inspiring group exhibition HOW&WOW from 19 until 27 October in VEEM at Strijp-S, Crafts Council Nederland presents the importance of crafts.
From wood carving to polyurethane moulding and from young maker to seasoned craftsman; HOW&WOW presents all dimensions of making. Crafts Council Nederland is the platform and expertise center that strengthens, innovates and broadens the creative craft, both in the Netherlands and internationally. They ensure a reevaluation of crafts and make them future-proof. Crafts Council Nederland do this together with a large community of maker-designers, craft professionals, museums, workplaces, companies, the government and education.
During Dutch Design Week 2019 Crafts Council Nederland highlight the meaning and power of making on the basis of five current themes:
– Innovation from tradition
– New materials and new applications of techniques
– Sustainable materials and production processes
– New future heritage & cultural identity
– Social innovation
