MADE IN EAST LOTHIAN
MADE is a social enterprise which supports artist’s, makers and the wider creative community in East Lothian. The organisation is based in the MADE Arts Hub in Haddington, a multipurpose space where we provide creative services, and address inequalities of opportunity by delivering art and craft activities to young people and disadvantaged groups in the community who benefit from social interaction with people who share common interests.
The creative reuse of donated furniture and materials is an important element of the Hub, both for art and craft projects and to generate income through resale to the public. There are three areas of work for the organisation: MADE Arts Hub – a creative space for the community MADE Community – groups and projects to engage local people MADE Markets – supporting local artists and makers.
