One of the best parts of Dublin Maker is what happens after the festival. In the last few weeks we have visited some of our makers in their own workspaces (@farsetlabs - spot the Dublin Maker signage!)
A market stall under a large tent displays dozens of framed and unframed watercolour animal paintings, including dogs, foxes, cows, birds, and horses. Smaller prints and cards sit on tables and racks, and circular ornaments with animal illustrations hang on a stand. A person wearing a cap and patterned jacket browses on the right. The overall scene is colourful, busy, and creative.A metal cabinet stands against a chalkboard wall with faint chalk drawings. On top sits a sign reading “BELFAST Farset Labs” with a Dublin Maker logo, along with a plastic bag of colourful items and a green crate. The cabinet doors are covered with photos of people holding small crafted objects such as hexagonal shapes and pixel‑style hands. A wooden plaque reads “Dublin Maker Volunteer 2023.” A printed sign on the left says “IS SOMETHING BROKEN?” with a QR code and instructions. The scene suggests a makerspace or workshop environment.

Among the many exciting things that happened at Dublin Maker 2026 — this one deserves its own spotlight. 🧱 Ben, of Ben's Bricks, a lego genius spent two months planning a full LEGO mosaic of the Dublin Maker logo - roughly 11,500 pieces.

Our wonderful friends and past makers at the Irish Patchwork Society are celebrating their 45th anniversary with a special exhibition in the Botanical Gardens, running until 23rd August. The showcase features an incredible array of pieces, all inspired by the theme “Echoes.”
A row of six colourful textile artworks hangs on a white gallery wall. Each quilt has a distinct style, including abstract trees in purples and greens, blue and yellow geometric shapes, warm-toned angular architecture, musical motifs on yellow, rows of multicoloured circles, and a cube pattern design.Seven rectangular quilts hang side by side on a white wall, each with different patterns: abstract red and green shapes, light blue paisley motifs, multicoloured hexagons, a gradient of squares, an ocean scene, and circular planet like designs. A wooden cabinet sits below with small textile samples laid on top
