Collect – the leading international fair for contemporary craft and design brought to you by the Crafts Council, celebrates its 20th edition as it returns to London’s Somerset House from 1 to 3 March, 2024 with previews on 28 and 29 February.

Tickets are now available at https://www.somersethouse.org.uk/whats-on/collect-2024 with tickets for general admission starting from £27 and early bird rate of £21 before 31 January 2024.

Collect offers an exceptional opportunity to buy and commission new, high-quality work all made in the past five years from living artists internationally and celebrates contemporary craft and design of the moment.

This milestone edition brings together a curated presentation of 40 galleries representing over 400 international artist makers at the top of their game for a one-stop showcase to explore the very best and newest works in today’s market across a range of handcrafted objects, furniture and art jewellery.

As well as the seasoned collectors buying at the luxury end of the market, Collect encourages visitors at the beginning of their collecting journey with works starting as low as £500 presented side by side with pieces ranging up to £50,000+.

The range of disciplines and materials at Collect spreads widely including ceramics, glass, lacquer, furniture, art jewellery, metalwork, textile and fibre, wood and paper, and pieces embracing more unusual materials such as resin, mica, corn-starch and plastics – as well as reused, repurposed, and recycled materials.

Alongside the galleries, Collect Open features 14 standalone installations all created for the fair by individual artists and collectives and an extensive programme of talks bringing together leading experts and voices to celebrate craft, explore contemporary issues and inspire audiences. These will take place both live and online and the programme will be announced soon.
