New Pottery Class starting at Craft Potters in Hope
There is a 4 week course starting net week Tuesday, 11.8., from 6 – 8 pm, $ 70 for 4 weeks. Clay provided & included on the first night, more can be purchased at the club at cost.
The first two weeks will focus on working with clay, simple techniques to get a feel for it, and making mugs and bowls, slab and coiling techniques.
After that we will focus on sculpture, like animals, birds, etc., or anything that might interest the participants.
This is really a class for beginners to get a feel for clay, the classes will be structured at first, like a step by step guide. You will end up with something beautiful, self made, that you can use!
There is also the possibility of doing a follow up class, maybe with a short break, maybe straight away afterwards, depending on demand.
Maximum 10 participants. To inquire please email info@ctraftpotters.co.nz.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
