Curated by Morley Gallery and Programme Area Managers, Michelle Avison (Printmaking/Bookbinding), Sheila Vollmer (Sculpture), and Stephen Ellison (Textiles), MADE reflects the diversity of work produced by learners from different backgrounds, experience and levels of craftsmanship, using a variety of materials, techniques and approaches. These featured Visual Art areas have developed an excellent reputation boasting a spectacular provision of unique courses, skilled tutors and specialist studios. 

Students were invited to consider the UN Sustainable Development Goals or their own interpretations re ‘Something of Importance’ in the work that they produce in classes and submit in the categories of Bookbinding, Printmaking, Sculpture and Textiles.
