Support Hornsby Ceramics

One final set of images from the Ceramics open day!





Consider this. 
With mor and more people being forced to move into units by the cost of housing where are we going to practise arts. The cost of a house with a yard or spare room or  garage space large enuff to turn into  a studio is rising beyond the reach of  most artists.

Do you know how many room a turning wheel for throwing takes up?
Then there's the sinks! Or a large tabel for setting up to paint and decorating that sure to be lovley majolica pice in the middle image.

The top image shows iron oxide being applied to a plate. You need separate storage space for chemicals. They really shouldnt be in the bathroom or kitchen unless you live alone and dont have to worry about safety issues to pets and children.

Ceramicists need studios.
 Don't let ceramics and pottery be a luxury hobby for the rich!
