Weekend Fun
Make it a creative day out for the family... 

There is so much to discover in and around Deptford. We love hopping on a boat to Greenwich Pier. It costs little more than the tube and we're instantly transported into a holiday mood. Soak up the sites at The Cutty Sark before taking a short walk to our Deptford Open Studios. On arrival treat yourself to a chunky chocolate brownie at our Hand Made Food cafe and enjoy shopping behind-the-scenes in designer-maker studios. Don't forget to try our FREE ceramic workshop by Katharine Morling too.
