We CraftForward
About Us
The name ‘Craft Forward’ captures the essence of what the organization stands for—moving craft into a space that fosters genuine connections. "Craft" speaks to the artistry and skill involved, while "Forward" conveys progression, not just in skills but in relationships and community-building. It suggests that every creative endeavor is part of a larger journey where people grow and move forward together. By framing craft as a means to connect people, share stories, and build community, the name implies that each creation is more than a product—it's a bridge that brings people together.
We are a 'make and create' workshop dedicated to exploring the art of hands-on craftsmanship and the stories behind what we create. As we prepare for our official launch, we’re thrilled to announce a series of pop-up events across Taiwan and Singapore. These pop-ups offer a preview of the immersive learning experiences we provide, so stay tuned for updates and join us to celebrate the joy of making and creating together!"
