Arts & Crafts

This stunning peninsula couldn’t help but inspire artists to create wonderful pieces of fine art, traditional crafts, design, tweed and textiles, pottery or bog-wood sculptures; each piece infused with the beauty of the surroundings and exclusive to our small part of the world.

Visit the artists in their workshops and studios where you can see their work and perhaps purchase a piece or two. If there’s no room in your case, don’t worry, some items can be shipped directly to your address, simply enquire with the artist and take a little bit of Inishowen home with you.
