Everything about The Home Arts And Industries Association totally explained
The
Home Arts and Industries Association was an organisation that functioned as a precursor to the
Art Workers Guild in the development of the
Arts and Crafts Movement in Britain. It was founded in
1884 by
Eglantyne Louisa Jebb who was inspired by an initiative of
Charles Godfrey Leland in Philadelphia. Another leading member was the designer
Mary Fraser Tytler. The organisation sought to revive traditional rural crafts which were threatened by the mechanisation of production and by increasing urbanization. In conformity with the thinking of
John Ruskin and with Arts and Crafts philosophy, supporters believed that flourishing traditional crafts helped sustain rural communities and provided workers with far more personal satisfaction than was possible for factory workers. The Association funded schools and organised marketing opportunities for craftspeople.
