Come as you are – leave with creativity, connection, and confidence

At Our Crafty Place CIC, we believe that creativity is for everyone – no matter your background, ability, or experience. That’s why we’re thrilled to invite you to our Free Community Craft Sessions – weekly opportunities to try new things, meet friendly faces, and discover the joy of making something with your own hands.

What Are the Sessions All About?

These are relaxed, welcoming, workshops where everyone is invited to explore a wide variety of crafts. Each session will offer a mix of basic, accessible crafts you can enjoy at your own pace, alongside more involved projects that rotate weekly – giving you a chance to learn something new or simply enjoy a good natter while you stitch, fold, paint or glue.

These sessions are community-led, shaped by what our participants enjoy and want to explore. Our friendly team is always on hand to guide and support you – whether you’re a complete beginner or returning to a craft you once loved.

We aim to create a judgement-free, pressure-free space where everyone feels welcome, supported and inspired.

Who Are They For?

Our Free Community Craft Sessions are for everyone.

  • Curious to try crafts without committing to a course?

  • Those who’ve been told they’re “not arty” (we don’t believe that!)

  • People feeling isolated or in need of a friendly space

  • Community members who want to connect, chat, and create

You don’t need to bring anything – all materials and guidance are provided. And of course, the kettle will always be on!

Come and Give It a Go!

We know it can be a big step to walk into something new – but we promise you’ll be greeted with a smile, a warm welcome, and plenty of encouragement. Whether you’re crafting solo, bringing a friend, or just popping in to see what it’s all about, you’ll always be welcome at Our Crafty Place.

Let’s make something together – not just crafts, but connections, confidence, and a stronger community.

How to get here

Our Crafty Place

1 Corporation Road
Ilkeston,DE7 4ASUnited Kingdom

Please be aware that there is no on-site parking and we are on quite a busy road. There are residential side roads near the building. We advise parking alongside the grassy area across the road off the main road (it is a small triangle of land which, if you are approaching us from the Nottingham Road, will be on your right hand side before you get to our building, which is on your left).

If you are coming by bus, all buses stop along Nottingham Road, which is just a short stroll away. The buses that stop at the end of the road are: ‘the two’ and ‘my 15’. Points of reference are KLG Rutland and Gallows Inn (both next to the canal). The street that runs alongside KLG is called Thurman Street and this quickly becomes Corporation Road, shortly after The Triangle (a green space that is the shape of a triangle). You will see our big building with its purple doors on the left hand side.
