Join The Society
We are a friendly community of like-minded people, who value quality craftsmanship, the importance of learning skills, educating others about craft and working to make craft accessible.
Join us as an established designer maker, a student or become a Friend of the Society who will support our charitable activities and allow us to continue to seek out and champion new craftspeople.
Selected membership is subject to an application being made and assessment of work by the Selection Committee. When considering your application, the Selection Committee will review and agree which level of membership they feel is most appropriate for you at this stage in your career.
Selected members may exhibit their work with the Society, have post nominal letters and will be featured on the Society website with a maker page.
The Society has now launched a new type of membership for students. If you are on an accredited art or craft based course and you'd like to become a student member, please apply below.
Student members must be full-time students with a valid student card. You must be able to provide a letter of confirmation of this from your course tutor to the Membership Secretary within 30 days of applying to join.
We very much welcome new Friends to our organisation. Becoming a Friend of the Society is open to all those with a keen interest in the field of design and fine craftsmanship.
By becoming a friend of the Society you support our charitable activities and allow us to continue to seek out and support new designer makers.
