Name: A.T.E.A.M (Art Team Etsy - Adelaide Made)

Profile: We generally want to initially raise awareness to the fact Etsy
exists and that it's a place where locals can support their local artists
and artisans. I think for us starting local will help immensely and having a
platform like Etsy to help us get the message across with very much improve
awareness in our city.

We are a smaller community and we are spred out so it is important to us
that we can share our experiences and support each other as we are all
mostly new to Etsy and our community needs educating not just on the
benefits of buying locally handmade products but using a
computer is still an issue here.

Almost half of the people who have a locally listed Etsy shop.

Contact: How to Join: There is a link called Join the Team from our websites' main page. The membership is handled through the forum on this page. Otherwise convo CouturebyNatalia for more information.

Meetings and Events: We meet at different locations as we are all spread out
so we try to accommodate everyone. It is always a public place like a coffee
shop or pub to discuss our main aims and goals although individuals do
branch off to work on their local area. Sometimes we get are offered a
studio place to have meetings in. We meet about once a month as a whole team
although smaller groups in more local areas can get together too.

We are currently in the process of producing promotional material and
discussing opening an artists co-op shop.

Name: Made On the Left

Profile: Our aim is to develop, encourage and showcase West Australian creative talent. Western Australia is a very isolated state and we have begun to band together to support each other. The team consists of a small committee and members. We aim to give people a fresh view of craft, that it is exciting, innovative, well made and an excellent way to support small business.

How to Join: Contact the leader above to join.

Meetings and Events: We chat regularly on the “Perth Australia Meetup” post in the Teams & Events forum, we also have just started a website which is still under construction and are planning a blog. The website will be designed to let sellers and buyers know where they can sell and buy handmade in Western Australia. The costs of the website and blog will be offset through advertising on the site. Through the website we aim to become the foremost place to find handmade events and crafters in Western Australia and have a long term plan in place.



We aim to meet two to three times a year; the last was a great success but could have been better if more people had known about it in time, hence the need for the website and Etsy team.



Our first project as Made on the Left is to start our own craft fair. The first has been booked for July and will be taking place in the historic Hyde Park Hotel. We are very hopeful this will become a yearly event. Craft fairs are a rarity in Western Australia and while handmade is well received it does not have the reputation that other states enjoy. Here craft is still seen as bargain hunting, not a way to buy quality unique items.
