Masterclass with David and Margaret Frith


Saturday 16th May 10 am – 4 pm, Design Centre, Tremough Campus, University College, Falmouth
David and Margaret Frith set up their first workshop in 1963. Their reputations are well established. David with his mastery of the potter's wheel makes majestic pieces decorated with his personal style of waxed motifs under heavy reduction overglazes and glaze trailing. Margaret concentrates on individual porcelain with carved decoration or coloured glazes as well as producing a comprehensive range of domestic ware and decorative stoneware. Both are Fellows of the Craft Potters Association and David is a selected member of the Crafts Council. They both have work in many private and public collections and exhibit widely in the UK and abroad.
It should be an informative and entertaining day and will include a talk, and demonstrations of throwing and decorating from both David and Margaret. For more details of their work go to http://www.pottery.demon.co.uk/
There is great interest in this event – so book early, tickets are limited.
Cost to CCGG members £15, non members £20
