Farnham School of Furniture - October Craft Trail

Open Workshop and Gallery 25-26 October 2025

We are very pleased to share that Farnham School of Furniture will be taking part in the Farnham Craft Trail this year. We are celebrating the town’s vibrant craft community and the makers who help define Farnham as England’s only World Craft Town.

The Farnham Craft Trail offers visitors a rare chance to step inside the studios and workshops of local craftspeople. Across the town and surrounding area, you can meet furniture makers, ceramicists, weavers, glass artists and more, each opening their doors to show how their work comes to life. It is a wonderful opportunity to see craftsmanship up close and to appreciate the skill, creativity and dedication behind handmade work.

Explore our Gallery, showcasing work by current and former students and our maker-trainers. Enjoy live demonstrations in the main workshop, offering insight into the skills we teach and use, including steam bending, marquetry, woodturning, hand work at the bench, upholstery, and weaving.

Our Open Workshop will give visitors an insight into the atmosphere of our workshop and the processes that shape fine furniture making. You will be able to meet our tutors and students, watch demonstrations, and see projects in progress. Whether you are interested in learning traditional woodworking skills yourself or simply enjoy seeing how beautiful pieces are made, our Open Studio offers a warm and inspiring welcome.

We are proud to be part of Farnham’s thriving community of makers and look forward to opening our doors during the Craft Trail. We hope you will join us to experience the craft, care and creativity that lie at the heart of our school.

There will be free parking, coffee and tea. Here some information on how to find us:
