The
Gwynedd And Clwyd Association Of Craftworkers aims to promote
individual local craftworkers across North Wales and their locally
produced products to the general public. We also help and support the
organisation of both new and existing craft events at venues within the
North Wales area.
For nearly 30 years the Association has been attending events and
organising craft fairs across North Wales, at venues as diverse as the
Beaumaris Festival, Theatr Clwyd, Anglesey Show and the Grosvenor
Garden Centre. In 2010 we have added craft fairs at Erddig Hall,
Wrexham and Snowdonia Arts Festival, Betws-y-Coed, while in 2011 we
added two fairs at Plassey Craft & Retail Village, Eyton.
All the products for sale by our members at these fairs are handcrafted
either wholly or substantially by them. Here's a list of just some of
