We are very honoured to have been chosen to lead musical theatre workshops today at the Lord Mayors day. It was great to see so many little faces join us. And then our main academy took to the stage to perform. These children make us so proud. What a performance by everyone.

Thank you Belfast city council. We were honoured.

It's time to meet our wonderful potters!

We have almost 40 potters attending our Christmas market at 2 Royal Avenue Belfast on Friday 6 December 5 - 9 pm and Saturday 7 December 10 - 5 pm bringing a wealth of wonderful ceramic creations to the heart of the city centre. FOLLOW US to meet the returning and new makers over the next few weeks and make a list of all your favourites, then come and meet them at the 2 day market! Shopping local this Christmas couldn't be easier!

We'll be giving away vouchers to spend at the market, inviting you to vote for your favourite pots and potters and offering you the chance to have a play with clay too. You won't want to miss out!
