Welcome to Making Space
Making Space is a community craft charity in Leigh Park, Hampshire. We literally make space for people and organisations involved in craft, whether physically in our own building or digitally in our virtual networks and events. We support makers, creating opportunities for people to develop design and making skills. We believe it increases people’s wellbeing by being involved in high-quality craft. Making Space is all about excellence in contemporary craft, design and the visual arts.
