Experience
Tartan Radicals Exhibition
Opening soon: Tartan Radicals — an exciting exhibition space exploring the history, politics, and personal stories woven into tartan. It’s about cloth, yes — but also identity, resistance, and reinvention.
Why We Do It
Radical Weavers is built on the belief that the art of making things still matters. We keep our work grounded in community, accessibility, and joy. The looms are noisy, the tea is strong, and we’re always up for a chat about colour choice.

We loved our afternoon of learning about, designing and weaving our own Tartan.
Design & Weave Your Own TartanSophie and Pete were entertaining, knowledgeable and really helpful throughout. The afternoon flew by, and I imagine we will be back before too long to do the scarf making workshop. Thank you, Radical Weavers!

What a brilliant way to spend a Saturday.
Weave Your Own Tartan Scarf in a DayI can’t quite believe that over the course of one day I was able to weave a scarf. The team at Radical Weavers are so patient and so encouraging that they make the whole day a joy. Plus, hearing about the background to who the original radical weavers were was fascinating and finding out that you are supporting a social enterprise by attending the workshop made the day even more meaningful. Would highly recommend!
