Arts and crafts in the northwest

Traditional craftsmanship, skill and imagination

Inspired by John Ruskin and William Morris, the Arts & Crafts movement of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries turned against mass-produced, machine-made goods, believing instead in traditional craftsmanship, skill and imagination.

We have outstanding Arts & Crafts collections here in the northwest. But don't just take our word for it - quench your thirst for knowledge and explore them for yourself.

Places to Love, from Industrial Powerhouse, introduces you to a handful of different places where you can experience the pure beauty, purpose and truth of the Arts & Crafts movement. You can also listen to curatorial introductions to the collections here.
