All of us can be Change Makers, using our skills and talents to create positive change in the world. Despite the difficult year we are experiencing with COVID-19, Sydney’s makers and designers have worked with us to develop an inspirational and optimistic program that speaks to the Change Maker in all of us. All the participants have COVID-Safe protocols in place for a safe festival. This year we have 115+ events at 59 venues across Sydney, including 56 workshops, 41 exhibitions, 9 talks and 10 digital events. This community-led program is the only festival in Sydney dedicated to making by hand. We hope you enjoy browsing through this printed program or on the website sydneycraftweek.com. Follow us on social media for craft news all year round. Pop in and see us at Australian Design Centre – the Sydney Craft Week Festival HQ. Join us in making change for a better future!
