Perthshire Artisans Craft Edit Pop Up

The Make Room on Princes Street is becoming a craft shop for the next few months. The Perthshire Artisans Craft Edit Pop Up opens on Friday 20 November and runs through to the end of January 2027, so it's there for the whole Christmas rush and well into the new year.

Inside, 18 Perthshire artisans are bringing their work together under one roof. It's a good chance to meet the makers, hear how they work, and buy original craft made right here in the county. The whole thing is run by UNESCO Perth City of Craft — Perth is the UK's first and only UNESCO designated City of Craft and Folk Arts — and it's designed to support local makers while finding new uses for vacant shop units in the city centre.

If you're looking for something for the holidays, the shop is open from Friday 20 November until Sunday 20 December. The hours are Tuesday and Wednesday 9.30–1.30, and Friday, Saturday and Sunday 12–4, so it works whether you're popping in on a weekday morning or heading in over the weekend. After that, the focus shifts to the workshops. Throughout January 2027, a series of craft workshops will be led by a Perthshire Artisan, with the details coming out on the organisation's social media and website.

So, you've got the pop-up shop for the Christmas run and the workshops to follow in January. You'll find it at The Make Room, 19 Princes Street, Perth.
