Welcome to Maker & Smith
We are an independent partnership of Carola Akindele-Obe and Mary Ellen Cliff based in Perth and Denmark in Western Australia (WA). We support the WA craft sector by promoting and encouraging the professional skills of craftspeople and designer-makers through a Makers’ Directory, workshops, masterclasses, talks and an international short film festival about craft. We also contribute to major initiatives such as the Indian Ocean Craft Triennial (IOTA).
