Lucas_Vanessa_NGV_Cup_Saucer_Ewer New Craft is Craft Victoria's product development service where retail, corporate, government and hospitality partners can build a customised product or create new products. Here you can find a maker to match your design style or look for ideas for potential product options by visiting the Craft Maker database of Accredited Craft Victoria Members.

By investing in everyday design and working with Craft Victoria's established creative micro business networks, New Craft is meeting the demand for authentic craft and design products.

With a proven track record of creating new products by professional designer makers, we're making sure sustainable, ethically designed alternatives are available in the museum and gallery gift shop, that you can sip coffee from hand-made ceramic cups and when you sling a shopping tote over your shoulder, it was designed, printed and sewn here in Victoria.

New New Craft Project Brief - AbaF Awards Night Item

A fantastic opportunity exists for a Craft Victoria Member to showcase their work at the annual Australian Business Arts Foundation (AbaF) Awards later this year; AbaF will host over 800 of Australia's leading arts, business, and government sector professionals. Art works selected for the 2012 Awards night will be the sole feature decoration for the evening, sitting as spot-lit centrepieces on each table. The host of each table is then presented with the artwork as a commemorative gift at the conclusion of the event.

For more information about apllying to be considered for this commission, contact Milly Flemming, Retail Manager - Projects, by Friday 23 March 2012. Download the AbaF Awards Night Commercial Brief (pdf, 140kb).
