Workshop space to share in Aberdeen
Posted by Hannah McAndrew on 3 February 2010
I live in Aberdeen and are taking a beginners evening class in
ceramics at the moment. But I find that two hours a week isn't nearly
enough time to practice and get any better at it. So I am therefore
looking for a potters studio in Aberdeen where I could spend some time
during the days (I'm looking for a job so I've got plenty of time
during the days), and practice throwing.
Do you know of any workshops/potters with a wheel in Aberdeen who
would be willing to let me use the facilities?
Best regards
Pernilla Andersson

We are organising a show of just Ceramics for our busy slot in the summer next year and are looking for Ceramic Artists to show with us.
We hope to show a wide range of work, and would be particularly interested in some wall -based work.

Thrown jars wanted
Posted by Hannah McAndrew on 8 November 2009
I am looking for someone to make these type of rough clay jars. Weight is anything from around 5 - 10lbs whatever is possible. No need for any fine delicate work on them although the ability to encorporate a logo would be welcome.
There are no precise dimensions - originally on Okinawa the hand span of the practitioner was supplied and the neck of these jars made to measure. More details can be provided if we are able to find someone to make them at reasonable costs. One off's originally with the possibility of others at a later stage. Often a nice ornamental set is sometimes made. Again that's something for the future.
Contact Lindsay by email on lindsay.mckenzie@btopenworld.com if you are interested.
