We are staging an actual, living showcase of The Makers Directory talent on Lewes High Street during this year’s Artwave Festival, and want you to be part of it!

Many of The Makers Directory community share their skills as part of their working practice - run workshops, one-to-one tuition, offer a repair service - and this year we want to celebrate this incredible offering in an interactive and immersive way. 

We have booked Gallery 207 on Lewes High Street from 1 - 26 September as part of Artwave Festival and intend - with your help - to schedule a diverse programme of workshops, taster sessions, talks and demonstrations. We want to enable as many of you as possible to take part so you can book the space to showcase your practice and work.

We are really excited to find out what you would like to share and hope there will be a mix of paid-for, ticketed and free to attend events - this will be up to you. Anything is possible - ring making, basketry, creative darning, printing, papier mache, carving, floral art etc – surprise us!

Gallery 207 will also act as a hub for The Makers Directory throughout Artwave as we want to use this opportunity to promote and celebrate everyone within the Directory, for we feel that the community’s strength is undeniably in its breadth and depth!

We are working out the finer details, but are inviting free registrations of interest at this stage so that we can put together the most interesting programme possible. There is a registration form and more information here…
