Join us to celebrate history of our local area at Deptford Hertiage Festival!

Ceramics Studio Co-op is glad to announce we would hold a ceramics market stall at Deptford High Street on Bank Holiday 3-4 May among many other local talents and inspiring crafts people! Come and see our finest and latest ceramics produce fresh from studio kilns! The street would be closed for pedestrians, and our pieces would be available for sale!

Here is the quote from festival press release:

We will transform Deptford’s High Street and surrounding historical buildings and areas into a wonderful International festival to showcase our proud History and Heritage.

By zoning areas into a “Village” zone with Classical Music, This will also include what we hope will be the UK’s number one new platform for inspiring Poets both published and new wave.

There will be a separate “Chill out” Blues and Jazz zone, a Performance and a World music stage.

On Monday 4^th May we have a giant Street Party on the foreshore, where children will have the opportunity to dress as pirates, whilst building miniature Ships to reflect the Royal Dockyard’s 500 years of Global ship building history.

There will also be a food festival reflecting the 127 cultural groups that call this part of London home.

Another event will be Historical re-enactments with a twist such as on Monday 4^th May the Battle of Deptford Bridge and Deptford Broadway with 2000 performers including 12 choirs.
