Warm and Woolly Exhibition on at the Claypan
Lots happening at the Potters and Craft Guild this month.
First is the wonderful news that the new kiln for the potters has been ordered. The Guild are very appreciative of three donations from Josephine and David Witten, Barraba Rotary Club and Hugh McKid which gave a great start to the fundraising. In addition, the Guild has received a grant under the NSW Regional Development Program which boosted the ‘kiln fund’ to enable it to be ordered. Delivery is expected in August and the potters are looking forward to being able to fire their work.
The potters meet every Monday and Wednesday at the Claypan and enjoy getting ‘muddy’ together. Always room for more people if you’re interested to join the group. They are always willing to help new potters get started. Clay is available to purchase, moulds for handbuilding, wheels once you get more experienced and the new kiln will complete your creations. Call in, have a chat, see what they are doing and maybe join if you’re interested.
The Long Weekend sees the annual Warm and Woolly Exhibition over the 3 days. Lots of new items in the gallery so come in and have a browse. We’ll be open from 10am to 3pm each day.
The usual morning teas and soup and bread roll lunches will be available over the 3 days. All home- made, delicious and warming.
On Friday 16th is the Guild street stall, outside the Chemist. and all the regular favourites will be for sale from 9am till sold out.
