Exhibiting in the gallery space is Dave Pentin "The Beauty of Hidden Places"
Meet Dave on Sat 17 and 24 April from 12pm onwards.
Inspire Makers showcases the work of over 50 Cornish contemporary design-led artists and craftspeople, with a mix of well-known makers and new talent on display.
Our workshop programme offers a wide range of classes to inspire you to find your own creative path, introducing you to the world of fused glass, jewellery, ceramics, lampshade making, book-binding, printing, painting and much more.
From the studio at the rear of Inspire Makers, Article Jewellery creates silver jewellery from precious metal clay, alongside a selection of fused glass, beaded and leather pieces.
Shop
Inspire Makers is a new creative space showcasing the talent of over 50 Cornish design-led arts and craftspeople.
There is a wide range of affordable work from both well-known and emerging artists and makers, across jewellery, ceramics, textiles, wall art, stationery, and homewares, with new pieces arriving regularly.
The story of each maker is told alongside their work giving you an insight into what inspires them and drives their creativity.
Buying handcrafted work supports small creative businesses and means you have something truly special, and often unique, to appreciate for many years to come.
Workshops
Our workshop programme will offer a wide range of “kitchen table” based classes.
These classes are designed to give you an introduction to various artforms, through half or full day sessions, and give you the confidence to carry on exploring at home without needing a large outlay on equipment or materials.
Classes will be held by makers showcased in the shop, offering you a chance to learn more about them, what inspires them and what they create.
Studio
When time allows, you will find the owner of Inspire Makers, Vicki, in her studio at the rear of the building where she enjoys experimenting with a variety of materials and styles for her jewellery range, Article Jewellery.
Working mostly with precious metal (silver) clay, beads and leather she is also quite taken with her new kiln and is currently learning the art of glass fusing.
