Collaborate with Us!
Artful Hands and Making Place were created around a simple belief: great places don't happen by accident—they're made. We celebrate the people who design buildings, create art, preserve history, practice traditional craft, tell stories, and invest in their communities. Our goal is to build gatherings and celebrate the creativity that shapes meaningful places.
We seek to collaborate with community organizations whose programs and initiatives align with the mission and vision of Making Place. If you have an idea, program, exhibition, or event you would like to bring to the Athens Cotton Press and are interested in working with us, we’d love to hear from you. Please reach out by completing the form below, and a member of the Artful Hands team will be in touch soon.

Making Place is a gathering that celebrates the people, ideas, and craftsmanship that shape meaningful places through architecture, design, traditional craft, storytelling, and community.
