Welcome to Artisan Art Supplies & Craft Works

In any ways the delightful little town of Todmorden does not know which of its true colours to fly, the red rose of Lancashire or the white rose of Yorkshire. The old county boundary ran through the centre of Todmorden and to this day the statues outside the Town Hall depict the cotton trade of Lancashire to the left and Yorkshire’s wool trade to the right.  All the colours of the rainbow are to be found at Artisan Art Supplies and Craft Works in the form of an array of arts and crafts materials. Needlework, candles, beads, cards and gifts.

Artisan is just the place to go if you are the slightest bit creative, just seeking a decoration for your home or an unusual gift or card with a distinctively individual theme. Tourists and sightseers  to this enticingly attractive area of Calderdale can leave Artisan  with a selection of Classic Embroidery depicting regional maps and scenes and providing a truly lasting memento of their visit.  The real appeal here though is twofold. 

First, to find such an impressive stock of paints and ancillary items including craft materials generally in the relatively small town of Todmorden comes as a very “palletable” surprise! Daley-Rowney oils, acrylics and watercolours are here in abundance in addition to a wide range of essential materials. Card making, scrap booking and bead craft enthusiasts will find all the materials they need at Artisan.

The second picture at Artisan is the imaginative range of Workshops. Open to all and ever open to suggestions for new courses, the good people of Todmorden must now be among the most artistic for miles around having, for a small fee, embarked on Workshops covering, to date, stamping and embossing, card craft, macramé, bead and jewellery making, painting and drawing, Christmas crafts and cards and children’s crafts – very apt as owner Angela Gale is a qualified teacher.

There are various discount schemes available, including those for students, designed to encourage your enthusiasm, Artisan being eager to “draw” you in to the extensive world of arts and crafts and here they paint a picture where, whether red or white, everything is coming up roses!
