Mosaic Artist
Perthshire Artisans is much more than a selling platform. It is a community of artists. Perthshire Artisans facilitates a peer support network amongst its members, keeps us up to date with opportunities beyond its own activities and provides one-to-one support where required.

Wildlife Artist
A very supportive network of creatives. An online group where you can find information as well as ask any questions you need help with. I have had help with my webpage, found really good printers and framers from Perthshire Artisans. We are notified early of any events to apply for that we may be interested in. There are also monthly zoom meets where you can get advice, tips and meet with like minded people.

The community of Perthshire Artisans provides invaluable peer support by exchanging targeted information and advice, helping me to run my creative business with greater confidence and competence. Describing being a member of Perthshire Artisans in three words: Community strengthens confidence.

Sheila Roberts
Print Artist
I have found so many benefits to being a Perthshire Artisan ranging from being part of an artistic community to training events and direct selling opportunities.
Personally, I’ve grown in confidence as I’ve met and chatted with so many different Artisans who are always so open and friendly offering their advice and support through our shared experiences.
