With the Art Trail behind us we can now contemplate Christmas and then the Festival of Pots.

We are scheduling the next kiln firing as follows:

• all work on shelves by 5pm Tuesday 13 th Dec.
• loading commencing 9am Wednesday 14 th Dec.
• firing from 8.30am Thursday 15 th Dec.
• unloading 2pm Saturday 17 th Dec.

There is a lot of preparatory work needed for the Festival so with the intervening holiday period as well, this will be the last firing before the Festival of Pots.

It is anticipated that the first firing in 2023 will be towards the end of February. Please remember the December firing will be subject to there being sufficient work so please crack into making mode again after the break for the Art Trail. As a guide to the quantity of work we need, the pre-art trail firing included over 200 pieces.

We are hoping that all those with work in the firing will be at the opening, though everyone is always welcome to come to see the exciting work that is passing through the kiln.
