Helen Pollock Workshop 17 August 2024
A group of 15 members attended a lively demonstration workshop run by Helen Pollock ONZM at the White St clubrooms on 17 August 2024.
Helen is the guest artist and selector for this year's annual exhibition "Inferno", held 24 August - 22 September.
Helen discussed and demonstrated her paper clay handbuilding techniques, generously sharing her recipe and practical tips. We gained insights into her ceramic journey and philosophy - "Your work reflects who you are and what is happening in your life" and should be "true to your own journey".
Classes - 2024
We maintain a waiting list for tuition. This is reviewed regularly, and those waiting are contacted when places become available. Please email our secretary Crissie Dickie directly if you wish to join the waiting list.
The club rooms are used for classes only between 6.30 - 8.30pm Monday to Thursday, and 10am - 12pm Monday and Thursday.
Sundays are tutor-only days - this gives our tutors an opportunity to organise the rooms and firings and prepare and replenish glazes for club use.
Any time outside these hours is for financial members to come down and make use of the club facilities.
