ABOUT

The Maker Space is a modern craft venue based online and in a beautiful but abandoned 17th century pub building near Henley-on-Thames where the team teach craft skills in their workrooms, stock gorgeous modern craft supplies and handmade goods in the store, and serve great food and drinks in their cosy cafe and garden.

The Maker Space Oxfordshire

We passionately believe there is a craft for everyone and look forward to helping you find yours.
