Events & Workshops
Each season we bring together like-minded, creative individuals through a series of events, talks and workshops both online and in person. We hope you can take part.
We host live shows each week, bringing our community together through a series of styling conversations, talks with our makers and guided tutorials led by the TOAST team. Join our upcoming events or watch our past shows.
Virtual Workshops
Prices for individual events vary. You will also have the opportunity to donate* to the Crafts Council UK. All you need to take part is a webcam and microphone – we suggest using a laptop or desktop computer, but you can also use your tablet or mobile phone.
