Set within the stunning Derwent Valley Mills UNESCO World Heritage Site, this beautifully preserved 18th-century mill provides a unique backdrop for a celebration of contemporary ceramics, craftsmanship and creativity. Over 40 carefully selected ceramicists from across the UK will be exhibiting, offering visitors the opportunity to discover exceptional handmade pottery, sculpture, functional ware and one-of-a-kind ceramic artworks. 

Whether you are a dedicated collector, a fellow maker, or simply curious about ceramics, Kiln offers the chance to meet the artists behind the work, learn about their processes, and purchase directly from the makers themselves. With excellent transport links, over 200 parking spaces, accessibility throughout the venue, and the beautiful Derbyshire countryside on the doorstep, Kiln promises a memorable day out celebrating the very best of British ceramics.
