Perth Creative Exchange provides vibrant and connected spaces over three floors including:
A ceramics kiln, a glass kiln and a photography darkroom is now open for makers to use on a pay-for-what-you-use basis, meaning users only pay for the cost of electricity for kiln firings and to replenish materials in the darkroom. Community Assets are an invitation to community members to engage in craft making, and the team looks forward to seeing this new provision in action.
To book an induction or enquire about the Community Assets, please email: perthcommunityassets@gmail.com.
