Kate is running her popular afternoon and evening classes
again in 2008.
2008
Summer term afternoon and evening classes
Wednesday
afternoons 2pm to 4pm commencing 9th April – 10 sessions
Wednesday
evenings 7pm – 9pm commencing 9th April – 10 sessions
Thursday
evenings 7pm – 9pm commencing 9th April – 10 sessions
Each
of the classes lasts 10 weeks and is conducted in the studio.
I take only 6 students per afternoon or evening course so get those
applications in quickly! The
classes are structured for beginners and improvers and are run informally with
one-to-one tuition whenever needed. I
cover the basics of clay handling, hand-building and wheel-throwing.
As the course progresses students are encouraged to start developing
their own style. For more
experienced students I am on hand to offer help, advice, and tuition for each
learner to achieve their own goals.
The fees for each of
the above 10 week courses is £65
To
cover the costs of materials, glazing, and firing there is a charge of £2.50
per pot taken home at the end of the course (£5 for larger pots)

Raku
days in 07 a big success – watch this page for 2008 dates
Great
fun was had by all at last year’s raku days and some attractive and exciting
pieces produced. Keep an eye on
this page for 2008 dates. The first will be late March or April time to take advantage
(we hope) of better weather although the last one of 2007 in mid-November was no
less successful in spite of the cold and gusty wind. Potter David Moore’s superb home-made soup coupled with
freshly baked bread came to the rescue!
to
register for information as soon as dates are announced
Raku
days cost £38 inclusive of tuition and assistance from experienced potters, and
glazes used. Bring your own bisqued
pots or use some of the selection of ready to glaze pots available at £2.50
each (£5 for larger). Times depend on time of year and available daylight.
Each session is 3 hours (although everybody gets so engrossed they
usually run to 4!).
