Terracotta Gargoyles for your garden/home
At ThePlough@StAnne's, Barnstaple
Tutor: Helen McCormick
This pottery workshop is designed to be a relaxed, friendly space where you can meet new people and have the opportunity to create, learn and have fun.
Throughout the day Helen will teach you how to make a gargoyle or grotesque sculpture using traditional hand building techniques.
No experience necessary.
All ages welcome (14 yrs & under must be accompanied by an adult).
All materials and equipment will be provided.
Tea and Coffee will be available throughout the day.
The only thing you need to bring is an apron or wear old clothes if possible.
After the workshop, Helen will carefully take your sculpture home and fire it in her kiln.
These sculptures are not glazed as the terracotta will age beautifully in your garden over time.
Your sculpture will be ready to collect approximately 3-4 weeks after the workshop from ThePlough@StAnnes. We will let you know the date and time.
Workshop costs: £55
Materials Cost: £10 on arrival
