MADE (AND FOUND) HERE

ABOUT

Thursday, July 23rd | 5-8:00PM

Made Here is a curated gathering where Portland's most intentional makers and creative businesses come together in spaces that have something to say. Each event is designed around a venue that reflects the spirit of what we're building: a community that values craft, character, and connection over the ordinary.

For July, we're bringing Made Here to Lovett Deconstruction, and the theme couldn't fit better.

Some things are made. Some things are found. The best ones are both.

COMMUNITY + CONNECTION

Made (and Found) Here is a celebration of the makers who build from scratch and the finders who see possibility in what others overlook. Historic lumber. Salvaged objects. Work that carries memory. Inspired by founder Der's deep belief in the life of found objects, this gathering brings together the people who understand that the most compelling things are often the ones with a past, held inside a space filled to the rafters with things worth a second life.

This is an invite-only experience for people who appreciate craft in all its forms.

We look forward to seeing you there!

  • “An amazing event for Portland. You brought incredibly talented and creative people and uplifted us all! Amy, your speech was inspiring and uplifting! We got this, Portland!”

    — Christiane Millinger, Legendary Portland Rug Maker/Designer

  • “The launch of Amplify Co. Studio has already demonstrated Amy’s capacity for execution. The ‘Made Here’ event was electric, bringing together high-caliber talent and fostering critical cross-pollination. Amy changes the conditions for growth, and her dedication to helping design and creative businesses succeed is obvious in everything she does.”
