FOREWORD BY FRED PRITCHARD
 | | Fred Pritchard Patron | |
| I am very proud to say that Staffordshire is my home county, which boasts an unrivalled tradition of creativity and innovation with its fine china and crystal glass, historic waterways and premier tourist attractions.
As Patron of Staffordshire Open Studios, I am able to support this growing network of contemporary artists and craftspeople across the county, who are actively regenerating the creative traditions within Staffordshire and building a sound future for the Arts and Crafts within the County, likewise, I am creative with the built environment and regeneration. Using a combination of innovative design, skills and techniques in the fine arts and traditional crafts, the visual artists represented in this guide produce beautiful and highly individual pieces of work. This is a unique opportunity to visit their normally private studios, see them at work, be inspired and motivated and discover for yourself, just why Staffordshire really is the ‘Creative County’ Fred Pritchard, MBIAT, ACIOB |
