Dates for 2008:
Saturday 28th June
Saturday 5th July
Saturday 6th September

The workshop will be led by two of our Senior Potters.
A variety of making techniques will be used, such as throwing, coiling, slab building and press moulding.
We will then supervise the servicing, drying and firing of your pots, ready for you to collect six weeks later.
Because we take a maximum of 10 people per course, we really are able to give everyone practical support and encouragement.
The cost of the workshop is £70 (non refundable). This includes all materials, tuition, firing and refreshments.
To book your place or for more information, please contact us 01608 684416 or email flowerpots@whichfordpottery.com |
