In or third year, we are proud to present The Dalston to Stokey Design District as part of the 2025 London Design Festival. This year’s focus is on craft — spotlighting how things are made through workshops, talks, and demonstrations by local makers along the trail. Dalston and Stoke Newington are home to makers, craftspeople, and multi-disciplinary studios where ideas come to life by hand. This year, our district celebrates the art of making: from glass blowing to screen printing, textiles to ceramics, see how things are made and meet the people behind the process. With a focus on sustainability and local production, many of our participants design, craft, and create right here in Hackney. Join us for a programme of exhibitions, open studios, hands-on workshops, talks, and street-side happenings — all rooted in the rich making traditions of our neighbourhood.
