10 Years in The Making – Designedmade Inc Makers Market 2024

The works of some of Tasmania’s best designers, artists and makers will be on show at the designedmade Makers Market in Hobart.

Now in its 10th year at the historic Hobart Town Hall, the market includes the works of more than 30 makers across furniture, jewellery, ceramics, textiles, glass, printmaking and paper who have created sculptural and functional objects for the home and to wear.

‘The makers market is a dynamic platform to promote Tasmanian design and the work of our designers here on the island’, said Linda Fredheim, curator and co-founding member of designedmade. Tasmania has a long-standing reputation for contemporary art and design, and the market reflects the breadth of talented designers, artists and makers we have across diverse creative practices. The market will feature pieces from award-winning designers and artists who have work held in collections here in Tasmania, the rest of Australia and around the world.  Alongside will be works from emerging makers who are honing their skills and practice.’

Established more than 25 years ago, designedmade represents, develops and promotes excellence in the professional practice of contemporary design in Tasmania.  In achieving this goal, the makers market has become a key event in Hobart with a loyal following on the island and beyond.
