Craft Cubed
Craft
Melbourne VIC
August 2014
Craft Cubed is Craft’s annual festival of experimental, skilled and ideas-based craft and design. Featuring exhibitions, installations, open studios, workshops and events, Craft Cubed is a unique umbrella for practitioners and the public to engage with contemporary craft and design. Encompassing a Victoria-wide program, this year Craft Cubed will orbit around core happenings at Fed Square.
Right now, Craft is inviting groups and individuals to express their interest in being actively involved with making Craft Cubed a great festival. We are inviting people to especially reflect on the overarching theme of The Art of Handmade, as well as considering the spaces at Fed Square.
There are three ways to get involved in Craft Cubed 2014:
1. DIY SATELLITE EVENTS
We invite you to propose ideas for satellite events at your venue. DIY Satellite Events are managed and funded by you at your own venue, but are promoted through our Craft Cubed marketing.
Your DIY Satellite Event can occur through-out or anytime during the Craft Cubed festival in August. It can happen in Melbourne CBD or anywhere regional Victoria.
Cost: Listing your DIY Satellite Event is FREE for Craft members ($25 for non-members)
To Apply: Complete the DIY Satellite Event Application: http://www.craft.org.au/See/Craft_Cubed/apply-diy-satellite-event/
2. ACTIVATE FED SQUARE
Craft is now taking proposals to activate some of the different spaces that Craft Cubed will inhabit at Fed Square this August. We will curate a central program that is drawn from your proposals and things we program. If you are selected to be part of the Activate Fed Square program, you will be responsible for presenting the project and working with Craft and the venue regarding onsite logistics.
Some of the spaces around Fed Square that are available for proposal include:
Fed Square Atrium
Fed Square video screens
Fracture Gallery
Yarra Gallery
No Vacancy Gallery Project Space
Detail about these spaces is outlined in the PDF Information sheet: http://www.craft.org.au/CC2014-Fed-Square-Spaces.pdf
To Apply, complete the online application form: http://www.craft.org.au/See/Craft_Cubed/apply-activate-fed-square/
3. BLOW OUR MINDS
You might have an idea that is bigger than both of these other options. Let us consider your grand visions for innovative, creative highlights for the Craft Cubed festival program which revolve around our premise of the Art of Handmade.
Giant installations, band program, mega online interactive project? Tell us your craft dreams. Proposals will be considered and supported on a case-by-case basis.

Alula Editions
Deadlines: April 28, 2010 (RECEIVE) & (ONGOING)
Alula Editions
Collaborative Textiles
Alula Editions is accepting proposals for our first round of editions. We work in collaboration with artists to produce repeat patterns for textiles. Each year subscribers to the edition will receive four objects (functional or scuptural) made from this hand silkscreened fabric. The objects will be made to compliment the themes and ideas present in the textiles.
How We Work
Alula Editions is currently accepting proposals for our first round of collaborations. We work with artists to create hand silkscreened textiles which we make into an edition of objects. The objects will be designed to compliment the themes and ideas present in the textiles and may be functional or sculptural.
We are interested in working with artists from all disciplines. Knowledge of repeat pattern design and previous textile experience are not necessary. We can work with any artist who feels that the aesthetic of silkscreen printing will compliment their practice.
Each artist is offered a $500 stipend for their work on the creation of the repeat pattern design. Helena and Amber take care of all production costs and labor. Artists also keep 3 of the editioned objects for themselves.
A Bit More About Alula Editions
Alula Editions seeks to provide artists an alternative mode of distribution outside of galleries and museums. The subscription model allows us to support artistic production while simultaneously building fun and mystery into the act of owning art. Repeat pattern as a form has a rich history, from French Toile to Japanese Sashiko, and offers an opportunity to combine ordinary material goods with imagery that defies expectations or moves beyond purely aesthetic considerations. We will be building a library on our website of links to projects we feel exemplify our interest in artists' use of textiles in contemporary art.
To submit your proposal please email the following to hello@alulaeditions.com
•A short (1-3 paragraphs, 1 page max) written description of your idea
•5-10 images of past work that will help us understand the context for your idea or give us a general sense of your practice
•1-5 additional images (sketches, digital mock-ups, reference imagery) that you think will clarify your idea
**Images should be in jpg format, no larger than 1 MB each, size of entire email message should not exceed 8 MB.
We accept proposals on an ongoing basis, however, the deadline for inclusion in round one (Summer 2010 - Spring 2011) is April 28th, 2010.
