Our members enjoyed a day in the warm studio at the @hazelhurstartscentre on Sunday 18 May.
Organised for our members the day provided great tips on the techniques needed to create decorated pots.
We found Niha Hukku to be a very capable and interesting presenter. Her generosity with sharing her techniques and tool tips was appreciated by all who attended.

Our members were very happy to once more combine with the Continuum Arts Society and put on a wonderful display titled Shire Creativity at the South Village Shopping Centre in Kirrawee.
On the Saturday we also held pottery wheel throwing demonstrations in the Brick Pit Museum where members of the public could then hop on the Heritage Festival vintage bus to travel to other venues.

An exciting year as we explore our new premises and what we can undertake there.
