FANS of ceramics are being invited to make their own clay-based art ahead of the opening of a new studio in Hereford.

The CUP Ceramics Community hopes to open doors to a workshop in Autumn of this year.

And, to highlight the world of ceramics to prospective new members, the group will be holding an open day at The Courtyard from 3pm on Saturday, April 28.

There will be throwing and handbuilding demonstrations, and pot painting for kids.

The overall aim is to create a social enterprise which will act as an 'open access ceramics studio'.
