A Ceramic Gathering at an Ecomuseum
Every summer, the Tuilerie de Pouligny, an ecomuseum dedicated to the history of people and clay in the Creuse Valley, hosts the Potters Market. For over 25 years, this event has brought together professional ceramists from all over France to exhibit and sell their creations in a historic heritage setting. The site, a restored former tile factory, is the ideal place to celebrate the art of clay.
Diversity of Techniques and Materials
The market features a wide range of ceramic techniques: stoneware, glazed earthenware, porcelain, terracotta, raku, and smoked clay. Visitors can interact directly with the artisans, discover their working methods, and acquire unique pieces. Pottery wheel demonstrations and glazing demonstrations punctuate the two days of the weekend.
A Family-Friendly and Gourmet Event
Admission is free, and the market is open from 10 am to 6 pm on Saturday and Sunday. A food truck and a stand for local craft beers are available for refreshments on-site. The green setting of the Tuilerie de Pouligny invites leisurely strolls among the stalls, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere conducive to discovering ceramic craftsmanship.
