Ever wondered what it was like to work in the Wedgwood factory? Our free family trail will help you and your family explore the V&A Wedgwood Collection. Encounter real Wedgwood workers drawn straight from the archives, from George Eaton, the oven man, to Millie Taplin, the head paintress, and collect stamps along the way. You can then transform your booklet into colourful bunting to keep as a memento of your day with us!
Dame Magdalene Odundo is a major ceramic artist, known for her refined sculptural ceramic forms. A residency with Wedgwood enabled Odundo to visit the factory in Barlaston and work amongst the skilled craftspeople, inspiring a departure from her typical style.
This monumental jasperware centrepiece stands at almost two metres tall and features interpretations of classic Wedgwood shapes and stories from the Collection.
Until March 2026
Discover the story of the iconic Wedgwood anti-slavery medallion. Co-curated with a community panel of young people and activists, this display explores the story of Wedgwood's protest medallion and its continuing importance today. Created in collaboration with Grace Barrett of I Am Ally, and students from City of Stoke-on-Trent Sixth Form College.
Discover the secrets of the collection through an evolving programme, Unpacking the V&A Wedgwood Collection. As we launch into a major cataloguing and digitisation project, explore Wedgwood history with us through regularly changing themed displays.
