Modern Makers Collective – Yattendon Winter Market
About the Modern Makers – Yattendon Winter Market
This winter, discover a carefully curated celebration of contemporary craft, art and design.
Bringing together 24 exceptional craftspeople, designers and artists, the Winter Market on Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 November will showcase beautifully made work that reflects the very best of independent creativity.
All of the exhibitors draw on heritage craft skills – traditional techniques passed down through generations and reimagined for contemporary living – creating original pieces that combine timeless craftsmanship with modern design.
Set in the picturesque village of Yattendon, the Winter Market offers visitors a chance to escape the bustle of the high street and enjoy a more thoughtful kind of seasonal shopping.
With its beautiful countryside, welcoming village atmosphere, award-winning pubs including the Royal Oak, and Renegade Brewery nearby, Yattendon provides the perfect backdrop for a relaxed winter day of discovering independent makers, enjoying good food and taking in the festive surroundings.
More than a place to shop, the market is an opportunity to meet the makers, hear the stories behind their work, and discover objects that are made to treasure.
From ceramics, textiles and jewellery to printmaking, wood and glass, every piece has been thoughtfully designed and expertly made. It’s a chance to support independent makers, celebrate the value of heritage skills, and choose beautiful, lasting pieces with meaning, quality and character.
“The market brings together makers who all have a strong connection to heritage skills, whether that’s through traditional materials, techniques or processes,” says Charlotte Berry.
“Alongside our regular collective members, we always head hunt a few new exhibitors each year. It’s important to us to bring exciting new talent into the mix, and keep the market feeling fresh and inspiring. That combination of familiar favourites and new makers is what makes each market feel different.”
