Free drop-in creative workshops celebrating Derbyshire’s innovators - past and present - on board Derbyshire’s travelling makerspace.
Join us on board The Makory at Ashbourne's Market Place for hands-on making celebrating Derbyshire’s innovators – past and present – whose curiosity, creativity and courage have shaped how we live and make today.
The Makory will host artist-led workshops, shaped by local histories, materials and landscapes, combining both heritage craft and playful, contemporary making. Visitors are invited to step on board and take part.
You will also have the opportunity to explore a touring exhibition, connecting local heritage, making and innovation.
Each Makory stop offers a unique experience, shaped by its surroundings and the people who join in.
From 10 am, the town’s new Market Place will come alive and full details of this year’s Ashbourne Festival Programme events will be announced.
The Makory Bus joins the programme launch, while the town’s vibrant Makers Market will provide additional attractions
