Step-Up Commission Shortlist & Workshop

The Step-Up Commission is an equal partnership between GAWIE and the House of the West Wind.

With well over 40 applications, we have narrowed them down to 20 exceptional entries. The standard of applications was extremely high and it was a difficult decision for the judges to decide who would go through.

At the end of January, in a Much Wenlock venue, we will be putting the shortlisted tellers through their paces and hear more about their fabulous ideas during the weekend. After that, we will choose our 2023 Step Up Commission artist.

There will only be one commission for 2023, but we think all our shortlisted artists are amazing!

Last year’s (2022!) winner, Madelaine Grantham
