The National Centre for Craft and Design is a unique and ambitious gallery that exhibits the most innovative, challenging and accomplished craft and design artists practicing within the craft and design arena today.  

It sits at the heart of the market town of Sleaford Lincolnshire in the pleasant riverside setting of Navigation Wharf.
The centre has five exciting exhibition spaces including the largest main gallery space in England, a roof top gallery and a vibrant window space.  

Our learning and events programme is built around the themes of each exhibition and offers a lively and public programme of talks, workshops, conferences, clubs, groups, activities, lectures, seminars, screenings, short-courses, and demonstration days.  

Our retail space provides a visually stunning and inspirational area for demonstrating and promoting creative talent and we have a licensed café that serves locally sourced produce and is a popular haven for local families and business people seeking a creative respite.

The National Centre is ‘home’ to the very best designer/makers in craft practice today.

We are open from 10am – 5pm every day except Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day.
