Events

During 2008 I travelled around with my new portable electric wheel making my pottery whilst selling at the shows, fayres and festivals that I attended. On this page is an archive of those events.

I am now booking the events for 2009, which will be published here soon. I aim to do more of the same and also feature "have a go at throwing" demonstrations at some venues.

I am also starting pottery lessons for beginners at two local venues in Weymouth.

I am also available to enhance your own event. If you would like a potter to demonstrate at your future event then please contact me to discuss details.
