JamFactory and Australian Design Centre present this major new national award celebrating innovation in contemporary craft and design. Works were submitted by Australian designer makers demonstrating innovation in technique or material use, and the 30 pre-selected finalists form this exciting exhibition.

The winner of the MAKE Award, ceramic artist Vipoo Srivilasa, received a cash prize of $35,000 with a second prize of $10,000 going to glass artist Jessica Murtagh with a high commendation to textile artists and master weaver, Liz Williamson. This is the richest non-acquisitive prize for craft and design in Australia.

The MAKE Award showcases designer/makers working across all related disciplines, including ceramics, glass, furniture/woodwork, metalwork, textiles and fibre, and contemporary jewellery.

Finalists are designer/makers with a high level of skill, either working with materials that are new to their practice, new or traditional materials, or working in new and innovative ways.

The MAKE Award is an initiative of the Australian Design Centre.
