Upcoming Workshops
Ceramic Postcards Workshop @Lark
A rare chance to come and make two ceramic postcards. Using stoneware clay you will be gently led through the process of forming a postcard and using a vast collection of stamps to write words and put images onto the postcard.
Each participant will get to make two postcards (which are the same size as a real postcard.) The postcards will be dried, fired and glazed after the workshop, and be delivered back for you to collect 2-3 weeks later. They will be finished with a hanging wire and colour-coordinated buttons. These make a fantastic gift, so why not make one to keep and one to gift?
Aimed at adults, but the minimum (accompanied by a paying adult) age is 10 yrs old.
A hot drink and biscuits are included. No experience is required, this is completely beginner friendly. Come on your own or with friends - you will be very welcome.
