Harbour Makers Open Day
Spend a relaxed day exploring ceramics and printmaking at our fictional Harbour Makers Hall. Watch short demonstrations, talk with the makers and see how everyday materials become handmade objects and prints.
Admission is free. Book a General Entry ticket to browse throughout the day, or choose the limited Printmaking Sampler ticket if you would like a short hands-on session. Both ticket types include entry to the open day.

Line-up
Speaker
Ana Patel
Ana makes small-batch bowls and vessels shaped for everyday use. Her demonstration follows a piece from a simple lump of clay to a balanced form, showing the marks and decisions that make each object unique. Visitors can ask about materials, tools and how to begin working with clay at home.
Jordan Vale
Jordan creates bold botanical prints with carved blocks and layered colour. Their short sampler introduces the basics of inking, rolling and making a clean impression. They encourage visitors to experiment and take home the small print they make during the session.
Host
Morgan Lee
Morgan helps neighbourhood makers share their work with new audiences. At the open day, they welcome visitors, introduce each demonstration and make sure everyone knows where to find the ceramics and printmaking tables. Morgan's favourite part of the day is seeing someone discover a craft they had never tried before.
