Creative community…

I love sharing the pottery space with others. Here are three friends, Karen, a potter, Lynne, artist and Yvonne, musician and artist – we had a fun creative session making ceramic bunting with all sorts of lovely textures and images and a lot of joy and laughter along the way.

Some days there is just me, and radio 4. Sometimes I am joined by Karen or by Chris and some days there are beginners in to learn. We also have folks dropping off or collecting pots to be fire or calling in to book in for workshops. I have some friends who just come to hang out and really want to help glaze as they find it therapeutic and a whole host of folks from the village who bring by boxes and packaging. we joke that folks used to come over with wine or biscuits and now it’s bubblewrap, but it suits us just fine.

It’s so lovely, making every day different. It’s also great seeing other people’s work and creativity. If you are nearby, do call in or if you are further afield find out if there’s a potter near you who loves to share their space too…
