Craft Sector Survey
Craft Scotland
Every three years Craft Scotland circulate a sector survey to understand how the contemporary craft sector in Scotland is developing. The data we gather is immensely useful as it enables us to gather insight into the strengths of Scotland’s contemporary craft sector, as well as the challenges facing makers. We use this information to advocate for support and investment in the sector, and make it widely available to others working in craft across Scotland and Europe. We are asking makers and craft professionals across Scotland to complete a short survey sharing some information on their craft practice, including their income from craft over the previous four financial years. We have appointed EKOS, an economic research agency, to deliver this survey on our behalf. It should take no more than 15 minutes to complete, and all responses will be strictly confidential. No individual details will be reported in line with EKOS’ privacy policy. We are offering a prize draw of one £150 bursary for a survey participant. Please add your details at the end of the survey if you wish to be included in the draw.

Call For 100 Tuba Players
Red Note Ensemble
Red Note Ensemble is looking for 100 tuba players to take part in a rare performance of Anthony Braxton’s Composition No. 19 (For 100 Tubas) as part of Lammermuir Festival 2026. We’re inviting tubists, along with players of sousaphone, euphonium, baritone, Wagner tuba and tenor horn, to join us for this extraordinary large-scale performance. Written by pioneering American composer Anthony Braxton, Composition No. 19 (For 100 Tubas) is a bold and immersive work that transforms the tuba into a vast collective instrument. With layers of sustained sound, shifting textures and powerful spatial effects, the piece creates an experience that is as much about atmosphere and resonance as it is about performance. The performance will take place in the beautiful Amisfield Walled Garden, around 30 minutes from Edinburgh, on Saturday 19 September 2026, as part of Lammermuir Festival. Please note that this is a voluntary and unpaid opportunity, and unfortunately we cannot provide travel support to participants, so we encourage local players to apply. We are looking for people who are: • Tuba, Sousaphone, Euphonium, Baritone, Wagner tuba or Tenor horn players • At any level of experience (amateur, student or professional) • Aged 16 or over • Available on Saturday 19 September 2026 from 13:00 until 19:30 for the rehearsal and performance. We’d love to have you with us.
