Make a mug - pottery workshop for beginners

Waikato Society of Potters

If you have never tried pottery before, this is a great introduction to the craft.

We will teach you an easy-peasy way to make your own mugs. No previous pottery skills are required and this would be a great activity for children and adults alike.

In this 3-hour workshop, you will learn how to construct a mug using slabs, ensure all the parts are securely attached, and make and attach a handle.

The cost of high quality paperclay, glaze and firing is included in the price for this workshop.

Suitable for ages 7 to adults (children must be accompanied by an adult).

WSP members $45
WSP non-members $50

Poll: Do you think this was the right decision?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton City Council is defending a $60,000 spend on a flood of water management PR featuring a TV personality as residents face huge rates rises.

At a time of council cash constraints, Te Radar - real name Andrew Lumsden - catches the eye on the council’s Facebook page, where he currently features in three “explainer” video clips about Hamilton’s water services.

Do you think this was the right decision? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
