About us

Back for our third year this October, Sydney Ceramics Market 2024 will boast more than 120 ceramicists from across NSW and ACT.

This year's event will be hosted in a larger space over two days, where you can meet and support an array of ceramic artists and makers showcasing the potential of clay in all its wonderful forms.

From statement sculptural pieces to unique tableware, you'll be able to purchase and connect directly with the makers. You'll also have the chance to get your hands muddy with onsite wheel-throwing demos and take-home sample kits to inspire your own practice.

The Founders & Producers

Sydney Ceramics Market emerged from a desire to create a platform to celebrate the immense ingenuity and diversity in the craft of ceramics across NSW.

We're friends and self-proclaimed ceramic obsessives, Melody Brunton (Ceramicist behind Emi Ceramics) and Samee Lapham (Photographer & Content Producer) — we met through a market ourselves and shared a vision to uplift, educate and create community around the medium of clay.

We were inspired to create Sydney Ceramics Market to present the wide range of makers' works we've fallen in love with and to encourage more people to collect pieces made by local creatives.

The volunteer team

Sydney Ceramics Market would be nothing without our cohort of incredible volunteers, friends and family who you will see greeting you at the door and supporting the running of event days.
