About

Located alongside the Central Craft studios, our Craft Maker Store showcases and promotes high-quality craft and design within the Central Desert region. Works in the store are made by members, artists-in-residence, and others with long-standing ties to our community and region. 

As a member-run Not-for-profit organisation, our store is proudly maintained by our amazing team of member-volunteers and is open Monday to Saturday, 10am–2pm. To keep our store open, our Craft Sellers are expected to assist in staffing the retail outlet for 2 (two) x 2 (two) hour shifts each calendar month in exchange for a 25% commission. If Craft Sellers are unable to do this, a 35% commission is applied.
