Hi everyone,

Some of you might be interested in this - the RSA have been doing
quite a bit of maker/makerspace support recently and this might be a
chance to get some outreach support and to raise the profile of your
space.

Hi Laura,

I hope you’re well!

We are currently working with the Crafts Council, The Institute of
Making and the Digital Programmes at the V&A on a collaborative event
titled Make:Shift:Do which is part of the Crafts Council’s wider
Make:Shift conference taking place on 20 and 21 November 2014.

Make:Shift is the Crafts Council’s new conference on innovation across
materials, making and technologies with a focus on cross-sector
collaboration and what a future landscape could look like for craft
and making.

Make:Shift:Do is a public facing event running in parallel to the main
conference, aimed at highlighting the spaces of making and bringing
together the existing networks of make spaces across the UK. It runs
over Friday 21 and Saturday 22 November 2014, covering the second
conference day and a weekend day to enable broader audiences to take
part.

We are inviting spaces to open their doors over these two days, run
any activities that you normally would, or new ones if you like, and
raise the profile of making in the UK. It is free to apply and take
part.

For more information and to apply follow this link:

http://www.craftscouncil.org.uk/what-we-do/makeshiftdo

We would encourage you to apply and register your space and activities
as soon as you are able to so we can get your details online and
visitors see the spaces taking part and book in advance.

Please pass this on to other spaces you think would be interested and
encourage them to apply, as there are many spaces we won’t know about
and also want to help profile.

We look forward to seeing you before but also on those days!

Very best wishes,
Hilary
