A ceramics market is returning to Leyton next month.

Organised by Turning Earth, the market will be held on September 20 and 21, celebrating the London Design Festival and Open House London.

The market, featuring 60 different makers, will offer various handmade pieces.

Visitors can also enjoy live music, street food, drinks, wheel-throwing demonstrations, and workshops.

On the Sunday, Hanna Salomonsson will teach how to hand-build intricate flowers, while Ben Sutton will conduct raku-style firings with pre-made vases for attendees to glaze, fire, and take home.

The charity Furnishing Futures will open its warehouse doors on the Saturday.

This will give people a chance to see how it transforms furniture destined for landfill into professionally designed spaces that support the recovery of women and children rehoused after domestic abuse.

A Roman kiln replica firing is also scheduled for September 13 and 15.

This event is the result of a collaboration between Turning Earth and the charity Friends of Highgate Roman Kiln.
