Claytopia: Cyprus’ First Ceramic Festival

See you on the 8th of December at the Polydynamo Dimotiko Kentro Lefkosias

We’re beyond excited to announce Claytopia, Cyprus’ very first ceramic-only festival, and it’s coming this December!

What’s Happening at Claytopia?

The program we’ve put together is packed with unique experiences for all ages and interests. We invite everyone who is curious about the art of pottery to join us!

1. Handmade Ceramics Market

Imagine that: 30 talented potters from all over Cyprus will showcase their work. This market is the perfect place to discover beautiful, one-of-a-kind pieces, from mugs and vases to sculptures and holiday ornaments. If you’re looking to support local artisans and find meaningful, handcrafted gifts for the holiday season, this market is a must-see!

2. Demonstrations by Top Ceramic Artists

Prepare to be inspired by our master-show demonstrations, where Cyprus’ best ceramic artists will share their skills live. Watch the masters at work as they shape, sculpt, and throw on the pottery wheel their stunning pieces right before your eyes. It’s a rare chance to see experienced potters in action, learn new techniques, and gain insight into the craft behind each piece. Best part - the shows are FREE for everyone!

3. Workshops for All Ages

We’ll be hosting workshops for both kids and adults, making it easy for everyone to dive into the world of ceramics. Adults can paint on ceramic mugs, plates and bowls, while kids enjoy workshops designed just for them. We’ll also have opportunities for try pottery wheels! Workshop schedule is already announced and available for booking. Make sure to book your spo, because they are limited.

4. Music to Set the Scene

We’ve got a fantastic lineup, including a DJ spinning festive tunes and a live saxophone quartet to bring even more life to the atmosphere.

5. Delicious Food & Hot Wine

While you enjoy the music, grab some of our delicious food and drinks at our food court. And what’s better for a holiday festival than a warm cup of hot wine? We’ll be serving it in our very own handmade ceramic cups, crafted right here at the studio! You can keep the cup as a souvenir or return it back.
