Opening hours 5 pm to 11 pm on Thursday 5th October, 11 am to 11 pm Friday 6th October, and 11 am to 11 pm Saturday 7th October. Anyone who would like to assist with manning the booth during the above time please let me know so we can slot you in on one or more of the three-hour shifts. This would be a great opportunity to see how the festival booth operates, especially if you would like to be involved in future Sawyer Clay Collective booths whether at the Greek Festival or Second Saturday pop-ups at Fire Gallery.

Feel free to call, email or message me with any questions or suggestions.
Happy potting, Staci

Discover Exciting Ceramic Learning Opportunities in Australia!
Hi, Fire Gallery members and newsletter subscribers,
|
As in the USA, the interest in making wheel and hand-built pottery is booming in Australia. Visiting makers would find it easy to connect with artists with similar interests through the ceramics community network fostered by the Australian Ceramics Association https://australianceramics.com/.
|
Here are some fantastic ceramic hubs across Australia that you won't want to miss. I am also including the link to SideStoke which has some great information - about Arthur and Carol Rosser who were integral to the development of wood firing in Australia:
|
1. Jam Factory - Adelaide, South Australia
|
2. Strathnairn - Canberra, Australian Capital Territory
|
3. Sturt - Southern Highlands, New South Wales
|
4. Quixotica / The Butter Factory - Cooroy, Queensland
|
5. Slow Clay - Melbourne, Victoria
|
6. Waldies - Snug, Tasmania
|
7. SideStoke - Arthur Rosser
|
Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions about these amazing facilities or your visit to Australia.
