The makers are the focus of our work at Bdc. We believe there is nothing more inspiring than the opportunity to hear a maker talk about their work and studio practice, or give a demonstration. It animates the work we display and offers a greater level of appreciation and understanding of the materials, processes, skills and technologies of contemporary craft.
