Designer Maker Hui: How to describe your items

An evening workshop and discussion for designers, makers, and other creatives in Christchurch.

The art of describing your creative pieces is a challenge for many of us. When selling your work online or face-to-face it is important to be able to tell a compelling and authentic story. It is often this story that shows why your items are so valuable, and leads to a sale.

This practical workshop will step through the main building blocks of an excellent item description, and you will walk away having written at least one.

Bring an item with you, your laptop/tablet/phone or paper and pen, and a willingness to let your guard down and talk about your work with pride.

Lovingly co-hosted by Encraftment Market, Pay it Forward, Arts Centre Mākete, Felt, and XCHC.
