About Sydney Made

SYDNEY MADE IS 100 PERCENT RUN BY VOLUNTEERS. LAUREN & ELENI HEAD UP THE TEAM, ALONG WITH THE HELP OF A SMALL GROUP OF TRUSTY CREATIVES WHO DEDICATE THEIR TIME TO HELP KEEP THE MAKERS COMMUNITY TICKING. 

SYDNEY MADE IS A VOLUNTEER ORGANISATION SUPPORTING LOCAL ARTISTS, ARTISANS, MAKERS AND DESIGNERS IN SYDNEY AND BEYOND.

  • Showcasing the work of our members to the Sydney community by promoting makers on social media, organising markets and online gift guides.
  • Building relationships with local businesses and connecting them to local makers.
  • Supporting our makers by hosting workshops and seminars to further grow their businesses and knowledge.
