The Friends of the Drill Hall Gallery and Members of Craft + Design Canberra are invited to join us at Craft + Design Canberra for a curator’s introduction to 2025 Emerging Contemporaries, including a conversation with artist Tess Carlton, the recipient of the 2024 DHG Friends Emerging Artists Support Scheme award.

2025 Emerging Contemporaries is Craft + Design Canberra’s prestigious award exhibition celebrating the next generation of designers and makers. Showcasing works by early career artists from leading local institutions, including Canberra Potters Society, Canberra Institute of Technology, and the ANU School of Art + Design, this exhibition highlights the diverse talent shaping the future of craft and design.

Featuring artists: Philip Agius, Tess Carlton, Isabel Chen, Sophie Constable, Jemma Copland, Ruby Davies, Rachel Hanrick, Tilda Joy, Liv Kidston, Ali Mencshelyi, Lee Nelms, Melanie Olde and Isobel Waters

To participate you can join the Friends online, in the Gallery or over the phone.
