Are you looking for a new hobby, a way to express your artistic side, or just a fun activity to do with your friends and family?
If so, you are invited to join the team at Bot Pots & Clay Studios Open Day on Sunday, October 29, between 10am and 4pm.
Clay Studios is a place where you can take courses to learn the art of making beautiful pottery either on pottery wheel or by hand building, and then find out how to decorate your pieces with underglazes and glazes.
Whether you want to make something practical like bowls and mugs or something decorative like Christmas ornaments, you will find everything you need at Clay Studios Botany.
There are all sorts of activities including term courses, one-off workshops and 24/7 memberships are available.
Bot Pots is the supplier of All Things Pottery to the whole of New Zealand, from kilns and wheels to clays, glazes and tools.
During the open day, you will have the opportunity to watch demonstrations of throwing on a pottery wheel by talented tutors, see the hand-building experts at work and ceramics artists decorating pieces.
Kids can paint a Christmas decoration with acrylics that they can take home on the day that will last forever – and have their faces painted while they’re at it!
Enjoy a sausage sizzle and refreshments while mingling with other pottery enthusiasts and take a look at the members’ and tutors’ creations available to buy at a mini market.
The open day is free and open to everyone, no matter age or skill level.
Bot Pots & Clay Studios Botany is located at 2 Bishop Browne Place, Flat Bush, and the wheel studio is at 2 Bishop Dunn Place – just behind the Bot Pots shop.
