Following successful shows in 2023 and 2024, Potfest is back for 2025! Operating under the same ethos as the legendary Potfest in the Pens events, this three-day artisan market will feature 90 ceramic artists, bringing together well-established names and emerging talent in a bustling arts market atmosphere—just in time for your Christmas shopping.
Experience an exciting mix of the sophisticated and raw power of the next generation in a welcoming, down-to-earth market. No art hype, no gallery glitz—just potters and the public mixing in a lively, indoor event. Held undercover, so you don’t need to worry about the weather!
At each Potfest show, potters are invited to enter a piece of work based on a specific theme. The theme for 2025 will be announced early in the New Year. For reference, the 2024 theme was: Hybrid – a mixture of two different things, resulting in something that has a little bit of both.
We look forward to seeing everyone there! For more details, please visit the Potfest website.
