These include but are not limited to: sculptors and installation artists, leather workers, small-scale wood workers, ceramicists, jewellers and sound/audio artists.
£382,819 has been awarded to Krowji by the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Good Growth Programme, which is managed by Cornwall Council and funded by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
