About Us : Society of Designer Craftsmen (SDC) is the largest multi-craft Society in the UK. It promotes and encourages excellence of workmanship and design.
The society promotes and supports the work of creative thinkers, designers and makers who continue to innovate in the crafts through their exploration of materials and skills. We have historical roots of which we are immensely proud. Founded in 1887 as the Arts and Crafts Exhibition Society with Walter Crane, William Morris and William de Morgan amongst our distinguished forbears, we believe that we continue to uphold the values that they established. We give a voice to beautiful, challenging and exciting work that is different from the traditional Fine Arts. Our current name was established in 1960 with the merger of the Arts and Crafts Exhibition Society and the Cambridgeshire Guild of Craftsmen.
We are a national society with some overseas members who live as far away as Canada, Australia and Japan. We have an active and hard working Council which administers the Society's business and is drawn from the different categories of membership of Fellows, Members, Licentiates and Associates.
