Tasmanian designers looking for an opportunity to create new work outside of a client brief, gain exposure, and connect with industry professionals on and off the island are invited to apply for Tasmania Makes 24.
 
This is the second iteration of an annual initiative for Tasmanian designers and makers from all backgrounds, design disciplines and career stages to showcase their work to a wider audience.  The project offers a range of opportunities, including facilitated workshops, industry partnerships, media exposure and a chance for your work to be exhibited and collected at the Melbourne Design Fair 2025 under the Design Tasmania umbrella.  

Other tailored opportunities will be sought throughout the year, on a case-by-case basis. The outcomes will be presented in a three-month exhibition at Design Tasmania from February to April 2025.

Whether you have an idea for a unique, collectible design piece or you're already working on a new prototype or product, we want to hear from you. Tasmania Makes is an opportunity to showcase your ideas, gain recognition, and connect with a community of like-minded designers and makers.
