〰️Weekend Teapot Making Course 〰️ Saturday 4th & Sunday 5th July 2026 10am–4pm This two-day course is designed for intermediate potters who are confident with the basics of wheel throwing and ready to take on more complex forms. You should be able to centre clay and comfortably throw at least 600g. Working in a small, supportive group, you’ll have your own wheel for the duration of the course, with plenty of opportunity for focused practice and individual guidance throughout. By the end of the course, you will have created your own teapot, along with any additional components or related forms. Your work will be glazed and fired for you in a glaze of your choice, or you are welcome to book a drop-in session at the studio to glaze it yourself. Finished pieces will be ready to collect approximately 6 weeks later (or can be posted by arrangement). Each day includes a vegetarian lunch, as well as tea and coffee, so you can settle in, focus on making, and enjoy the process at a relaxed pace. Taught by the brilliant ceramicist @clvbrookes Book via link in bio 💫

✨ Only a couple of places left! ✨ Join our 8-Week Ceramics Course for Beginners & Improvers, starting next week at Common Clay Studio in Bexhill. Led by the amazing @agataantoninabogacka , this course is perfect whether you’re completely new to ceramics or looking to build on existing skills in a relaxed, supportive environment. Mondays, 10:00–12:30 13th April – 15th June 2026 (excluding Bank Holidays) Over 8 weeks, you’ll explore a range of hand-building techniques including coiling, slab building, and pinch forming, along with surface decoration and glazing to personalise your work. You’ll also get the chance to try the potter’s wheel, with a couple of sessions introducing basic throwing techniques — a great way to experience both approaches. Book via link in bio 💫

The 2025/2026 Studio Development Programme cohort alongside our 2025/26 Curatorial Fellow @mxaxgxmxa - two programmes delivered @beechingroadstudios in deep partnership with @delawarr Left to Right: @janula._ @agataantoninabogacka @45inchesofsilk @mxaxgxmxa @oscaryasameestudio #OliviaDuVergier Natalia Janula, Agata Bogacka, Ell Silk, Maggie Murray, Oscar Yasamee, Olivia Du Vergier. ‘Soft Encounters’ curated by DLWP X FLP Curatorial Fellow Maggie Murray, The exhibition brings together the current cohort of artists taking part in the annual Flatland × De La Warr Pavilion Studio Development Programme, based at Beeching Road Studios. Now in its third year, the programme is rooted in a simple proposition: that time, space and sustained conversation matter. It supports artists to stay with their work, to test ideas, return to material, and allow things to unfold at their own pace. Here, soft speaks not to weakness but to an alternative to hardness and certainty – an approach that values care, mutuality and porousness. This exhibition has been made possible with the support of The Bridget Riley Foundation, Rother District Council, Arts Council England, and Art Fund’s Reimagine programme. 📷 @alinas.snaps
