MAKE is the Devon Guild's annual Christmas exhibition - opportunity for UK makers to sell handmade, high quality craftwork.

MAKE is the annual Christmas selling exhibition at the Devon Guild gallery. Showcasing a diversity of contemporary design, this exhibition focuses on handmade, high quality craftwork, connecting makers with our Christmas customers. By highlighting one-off, unique pieces alongside small scale batch production, we aim to offer a range of mediums and prices to suit all.

We are particularly looking for exciting and contemporary work. The Christmas season is a key time for sales - during the run of MAKE 2017, over 16,000 people visited the exhibition, more than 14,000 visited online, and over £29,000 in sales were achieved.
