Ceramics in the City

Ceramics in the City returns to the Geffrye Museum in September, showcasing stunning new work by 48 selected ceramicists, a mix of both well-established names and rising talents. An array of styles, techniques, texture and colour will be demonstrated in a wide variety of domestic objects, ranging from functional tableware to purely aesthetic or quirky one-off pieces.

During the three-day event, visitors will have the opportunity not just to browse and buy, but also to meet the makers and watch free demonstrations. Craft activities will be run to entertain children throughout Saturday and Sunday. A special preview evening will be held on Thursday 16 September from 6.00 - 8.30pm. The restaurant will be open serving drinks, snacks and light supper.

The exhibitors were selected by a panel of judges comprising ceramicist Karen Bunting, Christine Lalumia, Deputy Director of the Geffrye, and curator Alex Goddard. Ceramics in the City, now in its ninth year, is organised by the Geffrye Museum and Karen Bunting.
