Pottery family fun in the February half term
TWIT TWOO!
18 – 22 February 2020
We’re delighted to announce details of our fun and creative themed sessions for families in the approaching February half term.
TWIT TWOO is the theme and potters of all ages and abilities get to fashion an owl from soft clay.
The creative fun doesn’t stop there either. As soon as you have finished modelling your fowl, you’ll get to paint them there and then with coloured underglazes and slips.
The birds will need to dry thoroughly before being fired and glazed in our kiln. This whole process takes about a month and you’ll be contacted once your pottery has emerged from the kiln. If you are unable to collect your pottery masterpieces, P+P can be arranged at £5 per owl.
Clay is such a brilliant medium for families to work with. We’ve facilitated loads of inter generational workshops where 70 yr old participants have got creative alongside their grandchildren and sometimes, great grandchildren! Twit Twoo is designed for children as young as 4years – there is no upper age limit.
1.5 hr sessions commence at 10am, 11.30am and 2pm and places cost £20.
Telephone and email booking essential: Tel: 01531 633886 e: admin@eastnorpottery.co.uk
“Sarah hosted our small group of 4, where 2 of the group were birthday girls and it was so much fun! We each took a turn at the wheel and Sarah was very helpful and encouraging, as a talented ceramicist herself, at helping get the best bowl, vase, candle holder or cup. After that we painted our creations and the range of colours was great. We can’t wait for our finished products to be sent to us in the post. We really had the best time and will definitely go again!” Guy & Kate Oct 2019
Thursday is our making day when we work towards exhibitions, commissions or simply experiment with techniques and materials.
