What we do

An art maker laughing as he sculpts a piece of art At Henshaws Arts & Crafts we make more than art. We bring people together in an atmosphere that never fails to inspire.

Through our workshops, people living with a range of disabilities discover their talents, put them into practice and realise their full potential.

Get creative with us

Open to all, we have an Arts & Crafts Centre which is a community hub where creativity, friendships and opportunities come to life.

Arts & Crafts Centre opening times

Our Centre in Knaresborough, North Yorkshire is open to the public Monday to Friday 9am – 4pm and Sunday 10am – 4pm.

Please come in and explore, meet our Art Makers and be inspired by their beautifully crafted pieces of art.

“I like coming to Henshaws because I like art. This is my first time making mosaics. Learning to grout has been my favourite thing so far. I also like drawing my favourite characters by copying from the book. Coming here has made me more confident.”
