A small focused group session led by expert pinch potter Hannah Lawrence, who will guide you through the process of pinching a simple vessel and creating distinctive decorative patterns using the types of tools employed by potters since the Neolithic period. The workshop is suitable for complete beginners or those with established skills.
Glazing and firing of your vessel is included in the price, and the finished pots can be collected in November.
Young people between the ages of 11 and 15 are welcome to attend with responsible adult, and we request that those aged 16 and 17 attending without an adult contact us with details of an emergency contact.
This activity is part of Golden October, a weekend of creativity celebrating the renewal of CAST’s roofs. This significant programme of work, along with many of CAST’s learning activities during 2023 and 2024, has been made possible by funding by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund. Some renovations will continue through the winter months, but, at this important milestone, we want to invite the whole community to celebrate and enjoy the fruits of the investment in this special heritage building – a place for art, culture and learning that is open to all.
