The launch of ‘Made in Kilkenny’ during the Kilkenny Arts Festival was a huge success, lots of people turned out and there was a great atmosphere around Butler House and the Castle Yard. The exhibition itself looked great and the theme ‘Kilkenny 400′ really came through. Here are some images from the opening.
‘MADE in Kilkenny’ was formed in early 2009, and was set up to foster excellence in crafts in County Kilkenny, to encourage the growth of the professional craft industry and to promote the county as a shopping destination for authentic, handmade craft in Ireland. Kilkenny, has long had the reputation for being a hub of creativity, and ‘MADE in Kilkenny’ contributes to this. In this website and on our brochure you will find a guide to various Designer-Makers, and a map to help you find them.
