Rising Stars 2019  2nd March -13th April

'Rising Stars is a platform for some of the most exciting new crafts by emerging makers in crafts, design and applied arts - this year, the exhibition is bigger than ever, following a record number of applications.

This curated, selling exhibition will be showcased at the New Ashgate Gallery. The participants are graduating students, recent graduates or have reached a pivotal moment in their early career due to changed circumstances.

The project received 109 applications and 30 makers have been selected for the exhibition by a panel of craft professionals, focusing on their potential and talent.  

Many of the graduating makers are at a cross roads: they have a full portfolio of fabulous ideas, but are yet to establish their business skills and a network of collectors. Rising Stars offers just the right platform, and for many, it is a starting point for an exceptional career. Rising Stars is an opportunity for the makers as well as art collectors who wish to support and collect work by future stars.'
