Join us at Wysing Arts Centre, for a festive and fun afternoon being creative with clay - along with enjoying some mulled wine, juice and mince pies. We will show you how to create your own unique and special festive tea light holder, and some ceramic tree decorations. After the session, your pieces will be glazed and fired for you, so that you can collect them before Christmas.
Suitable for adults, or young people aged 12+ accompanied by an adult.
Only 12 spaces so book early!
Course Tutor, Fiona Colville is an experienced potter, teacher and facilitator, as well as being a member of the Wysing staff team. She started working with clay as a teenager, working with a ceramic artist in residence at her school, followed by a three year pottery apprenticeship. Fiona has brought her love of ceramics into schools for many years, facilitating pottery sessions for children and adults alike. Her own work is a mix of wheel thrown domestic stoneware and hand built pieces, many of which are raku fired. She is looking forward to enabling beginners, and those with some ceramic experience, to enjoy this festive ceramic workshop.
