September 6-7, CERAMANIA festival at the Winzavod Contemporary Art Center
Free admission, by rregistration.
The St. Petersburg ceramics and craft festival "Keramania" is heading to Moscow again.
For six years, Ceramania has maintained its title as the most beautiful festival in St. Petersburg: decorators, partners from the design and floral industries, creative communities, and music and gastronomic projects are involved in creating the atmosphere and mood.
The 30th Ceramania festival in Green Hangar will be the final stop in the team's series of outdoor summer events, bringing the street festival season to a close.
Each Keramania is built around a specific concept. This time, the theme was MASQUERADE—a space of transformations where the boundaries between reality and play are blurred.
The masquerade here is a ritual farewell to summer: through art and craft, festival participants and guests experience the cycles of nature and culture. The mask becomes a tool for finding an answer to the question: "Who am I without my usual roles?"
The organizers received over 350 applications from artisans and selected the most outstanding projects for participation. Guests will see booths from 150 artisans from across Russia, including many from St. Petersburg. Guests will have the opportunity to meet artists working not only with ceramics, but also with wood, glass, metal, and textiles. The market area will feature tableware, home decor, and jewelry made from porcelain and ceramics. Manufacturers of glazes and ceramic tools will also be represented.
Festival activities:
1. The free sculpting zone is Keramania's special highlight. Here, you can work with clay for free: sit at a table and sculpt as much as you like—from a miniature figurine to a large-scale composition. It's the perfect place for children and adults alike, where creativity becomes effortless and inspiring.
2. Master classes – from traditional to modern:
– painting eco-bags (shoppers)– mosaic from colored glass– stained glass in the Tiffany technique– hand-molding and painting of ceramics– sewing soft toys of fantasy creatures
The masters' specialty is that they carefully preserve ancient techniques but present them with a modern twist. These aren't just lessons, but an immersion into the culture of the craft.
Both zones—the workshop and free sculpting—will be open throughout the festival and are suitable for both adults and children.
While children are engrossed in creative activities, parents can stroll among the stands, choose ceramics or handmade jewelry, and fully immerse themselves in the masquerade atmosphere.
Keramania has prepared entertainment for the whole family:
– educational lectures from experts – beauty zone from the Samosvet brand – children's interactive show
An integral part of the festival is the food court with delicious treats: cheeses, sweets, drinks, and a cozy relaxation area.
CERAMANIA is always a great idea for a family weekend. There's plenty to do for little explorers, aesthetic enthusiasts, and connoisseurs of unique art.
September 6-7, 12:00–20:00 Moscow, Winzavod Contemporary Art Center, Green Hangar (4th Syromyatnichesky Lane, 1/8, building 6), Dog friendly
