​​​How to sell pottery in the shop
To sell pottery at our shop you need to be a member. You price your pottery as you wish but the association will take a small commission. If you volunteer as a shopkeeper, you can sell your products at a reduced commission fee. Contact the studio committee to express your interest.
​
The shop is open every Sunday morning, 8:30 am to 12:30 pm, unless a market or workshop is on at the studio.
​Buying clay
​We have a varied selection of mid and high fire clays available for purchase for both members and non-members. ​Clay can only be purchased in the presence of a teacher or committee member and must be paid in your name prior to use. You can order special clay and have it delivered to our studio with our regular clay order. Contact the studio if you wish to order clay.
Our Library
​Our library holds a collection of books, magazines and annuals on all aspects of pottery making. Most of the collection can be loaned out to members, but we have reserved a part of the collection for reference only. Members are welcome to come in when the studio is open to read the reference books.
