January Meeting

Despite several members being away on holiday, there was a good turn out for our January meeting…which was agreed in December to be the third Printmaking Workshop. People seem to have improved their skills judging by the fine samples of work brought to our attention….(see below)

Ceramic Workshops

The first Ceramic Workshop with Jo Ayres took place at Spode Works on Wednesday 31 January. Although some people who signed up for the workshops were still away, there was still a surprising number of enthusiastic participants. Jo and Alice proved to be truly inspiring teachers… helping everyone to achieve remarkable creations by the end of the session. Can’t wait for next week’s workshop when …amongst other things, we will have a chance to work with some of the vast collection of original Spode moulds.
