Thanks so much to all those who attended the launch of

Nicole Monks' marlu furniture collection last week. This

launch was the outcome of Nicole’s 12 month mentorship

with ADC and we think the start of a brilliant career telling

Aboriginal stories through her design work. We have some

more stimulating talks coming up before we leave Indigenous

Design. Our final exhibition for the year is Designing Bright

Futures – a selected showcase of UNSW design graduates.

Stay tuned for more details and save the date for the

exhibition opening on 1 December.

Object Shop is well and truly open for business. Loads of

wonderful work by local makers is finding appreciative buyers

(myself included!). With Christmas fast approaching we have

created two special events – a Night Market on Thursday 8

December with 25 makers that we are bringing together for

this one special night to help you to find handmade gifts for

the key people in your lives. Christmas shopping made easy!

On 14 December we will also host a special Object Shop

shopping night with all the makers from our shop and their

friends selling a huge range of work. Definitely not to be

missed.

There are so many people who support us here at ADC to do

the work we do to provide a platform and showcase for

Australian contemporary craftspeople and designers.

Whether it be a donation, a purchase from our shop,

attending an exhibition or event or interacting with us on

social media we appreciate all the connections, feedback and

support we receive. There is a small group of people who

volunteer their time and expertise to sit on the ADC Board

and I would like to acknowledge their immense contribution.

I am delighted to announce that Andrew Simpson, from Vert

Design, has joined our Board this month and we are all

looking forward to working with Andrew on future plans for

the Australian Design Centre.
