Making Space is Havant’s very own community craft charity, based in their purpose-built premises in Leigh Park.
As well as running regular classes in a variety of craft forms, Making Space has a busy outreach programme, providing subsidised activities in the community, and in its home to a number of professional makers who have their own studios on site. Making Space aim to make crafting available to everyone. Here’s what is coming up at Making Space:
Hampshire Open Studios
Making Space is delighted to once again be part of Hampshire Open Studios. Come and visit us on 16 & 17 August from 11am-4pm. Over the weekend there will be opportunities to visit our resident makers in their studios, and you can browse our carefully curated Pop-Up Shop in the Jewellery Studio.
Pots of Potential
During Hampshire Open Studios we will be launching our fundraising campaign Pots of Potential. During the weekend event we will be hosting a silent auction featuring donated pieces from local makers. All items can be bid on to help us raise money. We will also be offering four ceramic workshops which you can book onto to make your own pots! The workshops are 90mins long and in that session, you'll make a complimentary pair of pinch pots which we will fire and glaze for you. The sessions cost £38 including all materials and a summer cocktail in the courtyard before the session!
