Open Salotto CIC Presents: The Quiet Art of Femme Craft

The Quiet Art of Femme Craft is a community gathering celebrating creativity rooted in care, slowness, and shared experience. Inspired by traditional and contemporary femme craft practices, from stitching and mending to journaling and handmade objects, the event creates a welcoming space where making becomes a collective act rather than a solitary one.

Hosted by Open Salotto CIC, a community-led, non-profit organisation, the gathering reflects our values of accessibility, sustainability, collaboration, and mutual support. We believe creativity should be shared, not gatekept, and that community spaces should feel inclusive and creative.

Our guests have been carefully curated to share different expressions of femme craft; from sustainable clothing and handmade jewellery to punch needle work and textile arts. The event is accompanied by a small workshop station and live music, creating a warm atmosphere that encourages conversation, connection, and meaningful networking.

This is an invitation to slow down, support independent creatives, and experience craft as community.
