“State of Clay” founder, Fay De Winter is pleased to announce the first ‘State of Clay’ public events, holding mobile miniature pottery workshops, in connection with The Royal Society of Sculptors during the London Design Festival and Urban Makers at Old Spitalfields Market in November as a pre-Christmas treat. Two hour throwing workshops will be available to book at a special advanced booking rate. Spaces are limited to 10 per group, so advance booking is essential.
She says “My aim is to share ceramics with a wider audience, to make it easier for all to be creative with clay. Touching, shaping and crafting with clay increases well-being, while developing satisfying skills of making artistic objects by hand.”
