SUMMARY:Events Are Being Updated
DESCRIPTION:New! – Mid Wales Arts are offering a 3 day wood firing experience in the heart of Mid Wales. \nOur Girel 3e kiln was built in 2024\, an ergonomic\, economic and environmentally friendly kiln designed by Jean Girel in 2022. It uses less wood than comparable kilns and fires in much less time giving the opportunity for the experience of wood firing without a large time commitment. The kiln is designed to be energy efficient\, both in terms of the wood used and the effort of stoking. Those coming on the course will be able to participate in the full firing experience. \nFiring weekend courses will be Friday to Sunday. \nMarch 7\,8\,9 \nApril 18\, 19\, 20 \nJune 20\,21\,22 \nSept 26\,27\,28 \nProgramme – \nFriday – Glazing and packing the kin 10.00 – 19.00 \nSaturday – Kiln firing from 6.00 a.m\, finishing around 19.00 \nSunday – Morning free to explore the area\, afternoon will be unpacking the kiln \n£300 per person. \nMaximum 8 people \nYou can bring 12 or so small to medium-sized bisque or raw stoneware pots or come on our intensive throwing course the previous weekend. It is very important that you use appropriate clay to minimise adverse effects on other pots and kiln shelves. \nWe provide a range of glazes that have been used successfully in this kiln. In wood firing\, much of the pleasure is gained by the action of the flame on the unglazed surface of the clay body\, so glazing is not always preferable.\nWe can’t guarantee to fire all of your pots\, but we will fire as many as possible. \n  \nOptional 2 day throwing workshops\, max 5 students Saturday and Sunday before the firing \nMarch 1\,2 \nApril 12\, 13 \nJune 14\,15 \nSeptember 20\,21 \nWork to be made for firing the following weekend may be bisque fired or kept raw. We provide the opportunity to use the clay bodies that have proved effective in this kiln. \n£225 per person\, to include clay and bisque firing if required. \nBook both courses together for £500. Concessions available. \n**PLEASE NOTE: Prices are for booking direct\, if booking online please be aware that eventbrite applies a fee \nView Options & Book Online\n  \nCafé on site.\nFull board / half board available at Mid Wales Arts.\nCamper vans can be accommodated on site. \nContact office@midwalesarts.org.uk \n  \nMeet the team \nThe courses are run by- \nJean Sampson MA. Thrower and handbuilder with many years experience making wood fired salt glazed domestic ware \nAlison Finnieston MA. Hand builder with experience in wood and raku firing. \nEvan A Jones MA. Thrower with a strong interest in environmental ceramics and experience with different firing methods. \nMid Wales Arts is situated near Newtown\, Powys and has its own mainline railway station which runs directly to Shrewsbury with good connections throughout the UK. The station is a short walk\, and we can arrange transport if needed.  B&B is available on site and there is an excellent Gallery/Cafe.  The centre has fishing rights over a stretch of the nearby River Severn and there are many nature reserves and walks locally.

SUMMARY:Events Are Being Updated
DESCRIPTION:Mosaic Workshop with Delia Taylor-Brook \nSaturday 28 June 10-4 £80 (eventbrite fee applied) \nSummer Mosaics: At these workshops you may mosaic a summer theme either onto a curved surface such as a small terracotta flower pot or a piece of slate or wooden MDF board. Themes might include summer flowers\, birds\, frogs or insects or something else that appeals to you. \nFurther information: contact office@midwalesarts.org \nTravelling from further afield? We have B&B accommodation available \nAbout the tutor: Delia creates beautiful mosaic work using carefully selected pieces of discarded china\, tesserae and found objects. Sometimes broken heirlooms revive memories\, images tell new stories. Delia is a fine art painter\, inspired by nature who became fascinated by the jewel-like colours\, designs and patterns of glass and ceramics and the exciting possibilities of this ancient art in combining found objects in new compositions. \nThe bases for the mosaics and all the mosaic pieces\, including tiles\, glass\, beads\, china and ceramics will be supplied but do bring your own pieces if you wish to include them in your mosaic. \nwww.deliataylorbrookstudio.co.uk \nBook Online
