QEST is delighted to be collaborating with international luxury interior furnishings brand Sanderson to launch a prestigious new prize, the 'QEST Sanderson Rising Star Craft Award'.

Nominations close on Friday 17 May with the winner announced in October.

This prize aims to recognise an emerging talent who is making a positive contribution to their craft, the wider craft sector and community. This person is a committed maker who has been practising professionally in their craft field between two to seven years.

It's open to craftspeople across the UK with a career-changing cash prize of £25,000!

Makers must be nominated by a credible person – which includes craft industry professionals, tutors, colleagues, peers, or others and who must know the maker and their work well in a professional capacity.
