This year will mark the 14th iteration of our annual celebration of all things Australian design.
Every year over three fabulous days, thousands of people converge on the iconic National Portrait Gallery to shop small and support the designers, makers, and artists wh join us to showcase their work across a vast range of mediums from ceramics, glass, jewellery and object, textiles, fashion, and more.
We're searching high and low for fresh, innovative designer-makers to showcase their creations at Undercurrent 2024.
Whether you work with ceramics, jewellery, textiles - or any other creative medium - we want to see your bold and brilliant designs!
If you’re interested in joining us as a stallholder at Undercurrent 2024, all you have to do is give us the lowdown on you and your creations.
