The Toasted Ceramic Fair returned to Derby Museum and Art Gallery on Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th March 2026 for another inspiring two-day celebration of ceramics and pottery. Held in the heart of Derby, the fair brought together 37 potters from across the UK, from early-career makers to established ceramic artists, in a lively and welcoming museum setting.

It was lovely to meet so many of our customers at the Cromartie trade stand over the weekend. Visitors enjoyed browsing pottery machinery, kilns, glazes, underglazes, tools, and much more, and some walked away with fantastic show-only deals, including 10% off kilns, pottery machinery, glazes, and more when purchased from our stand.

Highlights from the weekend included:

  • Free potter demonstrations and talks
  • A pottery tombola supporting Derby Museum
  • Free ceramic bags for the first 25 customers on both Saturday and Sunday
  • The People’s Choice award vote, with the chance to win £50
  • The opportunity to enjoy Derby Museum and Art Gallery alongside the fair

The Cromartie Stand at Toasted Ceramic Fair 2026

Our Cromartie stand was a busy and enjoyable part of the weekend, and it was great to chat with customers in person, answer questions, and help people find the right products for their pottery studios and creative projects. We were really pleased to bring a hand-picked range of pottery supplies and equipment to the event, and we look forward to returning again next year.

Thank you to everyone who came along to the fair and stopped by to see us. Toasted Ceramic Fair was a brilliant weekend for ceramic artists, potters, and pottery enthusiasts alike, and we are pleased to say that the event will be back again next year.
