The Makory

Threading its way between all of the Festival’s six Hubs will be The Makory, a mobile workshop and gallery managed by the Museum of Making. Working with Derby Museums and the Derbyshire Records Office, special exhibits will be selected from local collections to inspire free, hands-on activities led by local artists and makers.

Find The Makory at the Hub locations during the festival and join us aboard to be inspired by local heritage stories and celebrate where you live. Everyone is welcome.

The following artists have been selected to lead workshops in The Makory during the Festival:

Verity Foster: Chesterfield and Heanor

Sophie Gresswell: Bolsover

Milly Melbourne: Heanor, Cromford and Swadlincote

Gordon MacLelland: Bolsover

Dr Tim Campbell-Brown: Glossop
