Derbyshire Makes @ Sharpe’s Pottery
A celebration of community and making
Discover hands-on, fun and accessible free workshops and demos, from pottery and wood turning to letterpress printing and more, alongside a local Makers’ Market, exhibitions, and ‘Swad’s Reet Good Art Trail’ (in partnership with Swadlincote Festival of Words). The programme also deepens the National Forest’s presence in the town centre with a special Forest Makers’ Market and ‘Treading Lightly,’ a unique workshop by artist and shoe designer Sasha Archer exploring how we can reduce our carbon footprint.
Join us as we act as a host for workshops, events and our special ‘From Earth to Art’ Exhibition!
Derbyshire Makes is a new programme of cultural activity across the county, an inspiring celebration of making in all its forms. It launches with a free festival between the 28 March and 27 April taking place at 6 hub locations across Derbyshire. Threading its way between these will be the workshop and gallery on wheels, The Makory – while a mass making project will invite thousands of people to get stuck in from anywhere in the county.
