new rising star craft award launches

QEST is delighted to be collaborating with international luxury interior furnishings brand Sanderson to launch an exciting new award, with a cash prize of £25,000 for the winner.

The winner will use the prize money to put towards activities such as studio costs, equipment, materials, training and education or project costs which would benefit the wider community.

The inaugural ‘QEST Sanderson Rising Star Craft Award’ aims to recognise an emerging talent who is making a positive contribution to their craft, the wider craft sector and community.

Shining a spotlight on this craftsperson will provide a boost at this critical moment of their career, helping them to become leaders in their chosen craft field.
