Where Makers Meet
Making is often thought of as a solitary hobby or profession.
Hours spent quietly throwing, handbuilding, sculpting, glazing or waiting for the kiln to cool.
Yet one of the most wonderful things we've discovered is that the maker community is anything but solitary.
Every conversation has been welcoming.
Every visit has taught us something new.
Every maker has been generous with their time, their knowledge and their enthusiasm.
That's the community we'd like to celebrate.
Kent Pottery Supplies isn't simply about supplying clay and tools.
It's about creating connections.
Connections between makers.
Connections with trusted manufacturers.
Connections with local studios.
Connections with workshops, exhibitions and creative opportunities.
We believe that when makers come together, everyone benefits.
Ideas are shared.
Skills develop.
Confidence grows.
Friendships begin.
More Than Materials
Like every piece of pottery, great communities take time to create.
The Maker Community is only just beginning, and we'd love you to help shape it.
As it grows you'll begin to find:
A Community That's Still Being Made
🔴 Events & Exhibitions
Local pottery events, exhibitions, markets and demonstrations.
🔴 Community Projects
Collaborative projects and opportunities to get involved.
🔴 Inspiration
Ideas, techniques, materials and creative discoveries shared by our community.
🔴 Featured Makers
Meet the talented people making wonderful things across Kent and beyond.
🔴 Studio Visits
Discover the spaces where creativity happens.
🔴 Workshops & Courses
Find opportunities to learn new skills and meet fellow makers.
One of the things we love most about ceramics is that no two journeys are the same.
Some makers have decades of experience.
Others are just beginning.
Some throw on the wheel.
Others handbuild, sculpt or experiment with completely new techniques.
Every journey is different.
Every story matters.
We hope to share many of those stories here.
Not because they're famous.
But because they're inspiring.
Every Maker Has A Story
Are you a maker based in Kent or the surrounding area?
