Designed Objects Tasmania (DOT) is a vibrant community of makers and artists in lutruwita/Tasmania, shaping contemporary design and collaboration since 1986. Rooted in Tasmania’s craft heritage, we celebrate the skills and stories that shaped our creative landscape. While honouring traditions, we explore new materials and technologies, continuously redefining what’s possible.
Our members.
Our members are the lifeblood of DOT, bringing energy, creativity, and collaboration to our community. With studio spaces and workshop facilities at its core, DOT is a dynamic space where makers explore, experiment, and connect. We cultivate an environment that fosters growth and innovation, encouraging members to collaborate and expand their craft.
This year we’re excited to be joining a cohort of local studios for Australian Ceramics Open Studios.
We’ll be opening our doors to give a tour of the ceramics department, artists will be on hand to share their practice, and have work for sale.
Join us for Australian Open Studios November 8 & 9
