OUR APPROACH

Supporting a more
meaningful craft culture

Crafters of Today is an independent publication based in Barcelona that researches, documents, and presents the work of women working across contemporary craft. We believe craft is about more than what is made. It is about the people, knowledge, materials, and traditions behind each piece. Many of the things we want can probably be made by someone within our own communities. Our selection is built around this idea, bringing together objects made by independent crafters from our surroundings and making them easier to discover and access.

We explore the stories and practices behind these objects, from traditional techniques passed down through generations to contemporary interpretations of craft. By sharing this knowledge and supporting the women who carry it forward, we hope to keep these ways of making and engaging with the world alive.

We also believe in the value of collaboration. By creating connections between crafters, communities, and people who appreciate thoughtful making, we hope to contribute to a more connected and resilient culture of independent craft.
