Making It Programme
Making it is a business start-up, or ‘business incubation’, program for emerging craft makers. It was established by Craft Northern Ireland in conjunction with the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and Invest Northern Ireland.
Given the growing concern of how skills-based training can be turned into successful business acumen, particularly in the current economic slump, Craft Northern Ireland’s making it scheme, founded in 2005, and operative from 2006, has been not just a landmark in craft advocacy in Northern Ireland but a life-line to markers.” Joseph McBrinn, Jan-Feb 2010
