Making Space is Havant’s very own community craft charity, based in their purpose-built premises in the heart of Leigh Park.
If you haven’t heard of us until now, we’re delighted that ‘Your Postcode’ is giving us a little space each issue to tell you all about what has been happening, and what is coming up, in our thriving craft centre.
Blind artist blazing a trail for Braille
Our resident maker Clarke Reynolds has been hitting the national headlines in 2023. Clarke is a blind artist who creates works of art using Braille, and he has been enjoying great success with his first London exhibition at the Quantus Gallery, which received coverage on BBC Radio 4, ITV and Sky Breakfast. He’s back in his studio here now working on his next exciting project, which is being kept under wraps until the official launch!
