Create something awesome!
Have you always had a hankering to try pottery or do you want to refresh existing skills?
As part of the Havelock North Village Carnival on Saturday, October 29, The Pottery Havelock North will hold a “Have-a-Go” day at the HN Community Centre, beside the library, from 10am to 2pm.This is your chance to experience using a pottery wheel or hand building something from clay. There’ll be some friendly, helpful club members on hand to advise and there’ll also be a lovely selection of club members work for sale.
If you’re interested in joining the group, we meet 3 times a week at the Old Girl Guide Hall in Bennelong place.
