The Capital of Craft Podcast | Sarah Corbett

The Capital of Craft 20th Anniversary of Craft Festival Season To celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Craft Festival Bovey Tracey in June, here is the 4th season of The Capital of Craft hosted by me, Sarah James MBE. I am the director of Craft Festival and Find a Maker.  In this podcast I chat with the inspirational and influential founder of the Craftivist Collective, Sarah Corbett. Sarah is joining us at Craft Festival Bovey Tracey in the Out of the Woods tent on June 8th where she will be in conversation with Daniel Carpenter, Executive Director of Heritage Crafts.  Born in Everton, Liverpool, Sarah P Corbett is an award-winning activist, Ashoka Fellow, author and founder of the global Craftivist Collective. She has dedicated over a decade to the Craftivist Collective, honing her unique ‘Gentle Protest’ methodology, combining neuroscience, positive psychology, campaign strategy and beautiful handicrafts. We talk about upbringing in Liverpool and how her parents shaped her approach to activism and why it's important to use your voice for change.   Her latest book, Craftivist Collective Handbook is is out now.  Craft Festival Bovey Tracey, Mill Marsh Park, Bovey Tracey TQ13 9FF www.craftfestival.co.uk
