Application Criteria
To be accepted into Sydney Ceramics Market 2025, you must be an independent, established and/or emerging ceramicist, or an established studio group/collective who produces and resides within the state of NSW or within the state of ACT as it is our aim to uplift makers in this region.
Please see below for further application tips!
To all our friends and fans from other states, we love your creativity too, and we are working towards expanding our events to welcome applications Australia-wide in the very near future.
For Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Ceramic Artists
The practices, knowledge, and creative expressions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists are integral to the story of ceramics. Representation in the arts matters deeply, and as organisers of a growing event, we believe it's our responsibility to actively create space for more voices, more stories, and more opportunities.
To support this, we're offering 50% off any stall size for First Nations ceramic artists. This is one step toward making our events more accessible and better reflective of the incredible talent and perspectives within our community.
If you have any questions or would like to chat more about the application process, please don't hesitate to reach out — we're here to help. Please reach out by emailing hello@sydneyceramicsmarket.com
Stall Categories
*Studio Groups/Collectives must submit one application with the details of all artists and their work, with one point of contact for all correspondence. If individual studio members wish to present their own stall, they can apply separately from the group by submitting their own application form.
Please note, we cannot accept Individual Artists to share a stall space if you are not part of a Studio Group – you must apply separately, as we encourage individuals to present your own brand and your own work in its best light!
Please note we do not accept agents or wholesalers; and we do not accept works made with polymer clay.

Application Tips!
As the event grows, so does the number of applications we receive, so the more effort you put into your application the better.
There are lots of working parts that play into a successful application off the bat, and we look at every online touch point we can of each maker alongside all the details you submit. It is a lengthy process we don't take lightly!
Please fill in every aspect of the application form as best you can.
A major factor that plays into a successful application is the inclusion of high-quality imagery that shows your range of pieces in their best light and helps us fully grasp your style, your technique and the collection likely to be available at the market.
We also encourage you to expand on your bio in the application form. Give us an insight into your ceramics practice, the types of pieces you are motivated to make, and the techniques you like to use.
If you're a returning Stallholder, we would love to see how your work has progressed since participating in any of our past events. New and high-quality imagery always stands out!
Notification of your Application Status
All applicants will be notified of their application status by Friday 30th May 2025.
As a Stallholder, you’ll have the chance to showcase your work and connect with a growing community of ceramic lovers and collectors — with over 12,000 visitors expected across the weekend.
