This autumn the Mercer Art Gallery shop in Harrogate will be stocking a range of handmade, original products created by Henshaws Art Makers.
Arts & Crafts
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.

Jadek by Imagine If Theatre Company
New play, ‘Jadek’, (which means ‘Grandfather’ in Polish) explores culture and identity whilst questioning, how do you stop being a soldier?
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.”
Wesley, Art Maker - Art Studio
