Chester Visual Arts’ Learning Programme Manager, Melissa Dilworth, leads this presentation. Designed for education purposes, Dilworth looks at the work of the artists featured in the V&A Woman’s Hour Craft Prize exhibition.

Chester Visual Arts brought the acclaimed V&A Woman’s Hour Craft Prize exhibition to Chester’s Old Library (30 November 2018 – 16 March 2019).

The exhibition followed the hugely successful V&A Pop Art in Print exhibition and Liz West’s ‘Our Colour Reflection’ at Chester Cathedral, further cementing the organisation’s ambition to bring great art to Chester.

Showcasing the most innovative and exciting craft practice in the UK today, the V&A exhibition marked the 70th anniversary of BBC Woman’s Hour.

Exhibition tour was organised by the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. The Woman’s Hour Craft Prize was in association with BBC Radio 4 and the Crafts Council.
