All of us at the Malta Crafts Foundation are still buzzing with excitement following the first edition of designMT, having organised four exhibitions each showcasing a diverse collection of contemporary design pieces, as well as the four thematic talks that sparked a conversation about the impact of the design on certain aspects of our daily lives, our spatial environment, food, technology, and fashion.
We would like to take the opportunity to once again thank all those that have contributed in one way or another, including our various supporting entities: Arts Council Malta, Heritage Malta, the Industrial Property Registrations Unit within the Commerce Department, Malta Digital Innovation Authority, and Visit Malta; our collaborators The Golden Glitch, Kamra tal-Periti, Spazju Kreattiv, and Valletta Cultural Agency; our venues Auberge d’Aragon, Fortress Builders, St John’s Cavalier, and Valletta Design Cluster; and Lovin Malta as Media Partners.
Above all, we would like to thank all the exhibitors and visitors at the exhibitions, and moderators, speakers, and participants at the thematic events.
Watch this space as we announce more initiatives in the coming months to continue building on what we started. We look forward to more fruitful discussions and opportunities to showcase the incredible talents of our local community.
