A new year, a new market! Turning Earth’s Ceramics Market is back at the Hoxton studio on the weekend of March 22nd and 23rd. With 80 talented makers (different each day) showcasing their handmade pottery, you’ll discover an array of beautifully crafted, one-of-a-kind pieces. With Mother’s Day just around the corner, it’s the ideal opportunity to pick up something truly special.
Throughout the weekend, you’ll be treated to live performances by Jimm, from the Jazz Cannibals, whose eclectic sound blends jazz, rap, trad, folk, reggae, sea shanty, punk, and funk—an unmissable soundtrack to your market experience.
Feeling peckish? Sourdough Daali, a micro-bakery and street food pop-up, will be serving up wood-fired sourdough pizzas alongside irresistible treats like cardamom banana bread and brown butter flapjacks. Meanwhile, Climpson & Sons will be on hand with expertly brewed barista coffee, soft drinks, and their signature Espresso Martini.
Sunday, March 23rd, brings an extra special guest - Victor Ng, one of the participants of the current edition of The Great Pottery Throw Down. He’ll be showcasing and selling his work, and if you’re lucky, he might share some behind-the-scenes stories from the show, including his proudest (and most disastrous) moments—like the time he built and decorated a boat… only for it to explode in the kiln! Originally from Canada, Victor discovered Turning Earth Hoxton after moving to London in 2021 and has been a dedicated maker ever since, with a passion for throwing delightfully wacky vases.
Also joining us on Sunday are some of the makers of the East End Trades Guild, an alliance of 300 independent East London businesses and self-employed artisans (including Turning Earth). Their presence brings a diverse range of handmade goods beyond ceramics, all created with the same care and craftsmanship. The EETG works to protect and sustain local businesses, ensuring that London’s creative community continues to thrive.
