Classes for 2013



My studio is based in the beautiful village of Glaisdale, about 12 miles from Whitby in North Yorkshire. It is a well equipped workshop dedicated to metal clay and jewellery making.  Over the winter 2011/12 it was completely refurbished, including removing a dividing wall to open up the teaching space.   There are all kinds of exciting classes for 2013 so please keep checking as you will need to book early to secure a place.
