Welcome to Brigantia

A Showcase of Yorkshire’s Finest Artists and Craftspeople

Brigantia is a collective of skilled artisans and designers from North Yorkshire, dedicated to the rich heritage of arts and crafts in our region. Our members work across a diverse range of mediums, including textiles, metal, wood, clay, glass, and more, bringing both two-dimensional and three-dimensional art to life.

Our name, Brigantia, draws inspiration from the ancient Brigantes, a proud and creative people who once inhabited this land. Just as they were known for their exquisite craftsmanship and deep connection to the natural world, we too are inspired by the wild moorlands and rugged seashores of Yorkshire, continuing a tradition of artistic excellence that has thrived here for centuries.

On our website, you’ll discover the unique stories of our members and explore a curated selection of their exceptional work. Whether you’re an art lover or a collector, we invite you to immerse yourself in the creativity of our community. Our regular exhibitions across North Yorkshire offer a perfect opportunity to experience these works firsthand and to add a piece of this region’s artistic legacy to your own collection.

At Brigantia, we uphold the highest standards of design and craftsmanship. Our members range from solo artisans working in intimate garden studios to well-established makers with national acclaim. What unites them all is a commitment to creating work that is not only beautiful but also deeply rooted in the spirit of Yorkshire.
