We get to collaborate and promote our courses and classes with some wonderful partners, none more so than Wonderdays.

A few weeks back, they sent Ollie the videographer to capture some of the magic of our Introduction To The Potter’s Wheel

Ollie was charming and totally ‘got’ the Pottery and all we strive to achieve with our creative business.

We cant wait to see what he does with the moving images and photographs he took. Think the results are heading for YouTube? – Watch this space!

February half term would normally see us packed to the rafters with families and young people, enjoying an hour or two of pottery making. This year, and you don’t need reminding why, it was not to be.

In an attempt to engage our lovely audience we took to Facebook and broadcast x3 and totally FREE pottery tutorials for families to try at home.

What a fantastic response!

Thank you to everybody who took the time to share their fantastic clay models with us. We salute you.

Don’t worry if you weren’t able to ‘make along’ live, we’ve published the videos on our Facebook page so you can follow them at your leisure :)

Here are the links:
