Anne Bårdsgård (b. 1966) is a craftswoman with an education from the Department of Textiles at the Bergen University College of Art.

Her works have been purchased by Norwegian art industry museums, the Arts Council, and the Foundation for the decoration of public buildings and more. Bårdsgård has grown up in Selbu, in 2013, she got an idea: Was it possible to collect, register and transcribe patterns from Selbu and collect them in book form to put the motto production in Selbu in a national cultural-historical context? The book Selbuvotter is a successful result of the project. She currently resides in Selbu a municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway.
