Workshop: Clay Day
The Leach Pottery Museum
Saturday 7 September, 11.00am-12.30pm & 1.30pm-3.30pm
Join a tutor to make with local clay and experiment with different hand-building skills to create pots inspired by the Leach Pottery collection. Finished post can then be exhibited in the Leach Pottery's Potter's Corner. All ages welcome.

Exhibition: John Bedding: 60 Years On
The Leach Pottery Entrance Gallery
This exhibition features new pieces from John's Copper Glazed Pot series; these sculptural pieces are raku fired, then finished with patination chemicals to give spontaneous colours and unique surface finishes.

Exhibition: Students Over a Century: Roots and Branches
The Leach Pottery, Cube Gallery
For over a century, the Leach Pottery has been a site of training and learning – weaving people, pots, ideas and cultures together. This exhibition tells the story of a small number of the Leach Pottery’s students, from the early years to the present day. This intriguing collection of pots from the Leach Studio and individual potters – some made at the Leach Pottery, some in the potter’s own studios – gives a sense of how potters respond to their time here; some adopting, developing or even rejecting the aesthetics and ideas.

Please see our website for full details.
