Arts & Crafts Centre
At Henshaws Arts & Crafts we make more than art. We bring people together in an atmosphere that never fails to inspire.
On this page you can find out more about joining us as an art maker, coming to one of our events or visiting our shop, cafe and gardens.
We look forward to welcoming you!
About us
Through our workshops, people living with a range of disabilities discover their talents, put them into practice and realise their full potential.
On weekdays our workshops are filled with Art Makers creating beautiful and unique pieces of art.

Visit us
Our lovely shop in Knaresborough is currently open Monday – Friday 10am- 4pm. The shelves are stocked up with loads of beautiful, colourful handmade pieces including cards, jewellery and garden accessories.
You can also pop by for coffee and cake or take a stroll around the gardens.
In order to protect our art makers, we politely ask that you bring your masks and wear them in indoor spaces apart from when seated.

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.”
