A HUGE congratulations to all of the young people involved in The RDS Craft & Design Fair which took place on November 30th – 4th December 2011 at the RDS in Dublin. Some 90 young people involved from 15 schools and youth centres throughout Dublin, Tipperary & Cork were amongst the hundreds of designers, artists, and crafts people who took part in the country’s largest celebration of crafts. The annual fair is widely recognised as Ireland’s premier commercial craftwork showcase. In total, 50 businesses traded selling a collective total of €4,800 over the five days.

The young people really enjoyed the experience and it was a great opportunity for the budding entrepreneurs to hone their selling skills for future trading. Thanks to the organisers of the Craft fair for hosting NFTE's young entrepreneurs!
