Welcome to Craft Hub EU Conference
Makers, curators, researchers and academics were invited to contribute presentations for the Craft Hub Conference October 26 & 27th on site at Oslo Metropolitan University, Norway, and online November 1st of 2023.
The conference for the Craft Hub project aims to raise awareness of the role of craft in society in the broadest sense. Conference presenters will provide perspectives on the many roles of craft and making disciplines in society. The conference is an opportunity to share outcomes from the project and to discuss the potential for the future development of Craft Hub, for example through education or the EU plan of New European Bauhaus.
