Craft + Design Canberra is excited to receive the gift of the Undercurrent Design Market from its founders, Richard Baz and Mel O'Hanlon, the Directors and creators of The Curatoreum.
The Undercurrent Design Market brings together over 70 accomplished makers from across Australia, showcasing contemporary work in jewellery, glass, ceramics, textiles and diverse creative mediums. Visitors will discover unique, handcrafted pieces while engaging directly with the artists who create them.
