Unfortunately not! We encourage all our members to travel actively or ride share to the studio to ease up on congestion.
The parking alongside the building belongs to Hereford Yoga, who we rent our unit from. Our rental agreement states that we must give way during class times, which can be found on their website, or on flyers in their foyer (handy to have in the car!).
Pressure has eased since Packit and Pink Mountain have closed down, however it can still be hectic on the estate around after school club times in the evenings.
Parking can also be found round the mechanics after 5pm and on the weekends.
They're coming as soon as we get funding for a mezzanine! We are always actively looking for funding to expand internally, to reduce the pressure of classes on members use of the studio.
Currently we do not have the space to host more wheels in the studio, however the majority of classes allow for use of the glaze room and at least one handbuilding table while teaching is going on. Where this isn't possible, we always communicate as far in advance as possible.
The weekly messages began as a gentle reminder of what is on, as we have opened up access to members as much as possible during classes from January 2023.
Our regularly recurring class times are available for all to check on the website from January each year. They are also on the courses board in the studio.
One off or specialist classes are advertised on the website and within the WhatsApp as soon as we have them organised, generally at least one month in advance.
Our regular events are available for all to check on the website from January each year. They are also on the courses board in the studio. Attending these events is appreciated; as visitors with family or friends, or give us a hand by volunteering!
We have one week long period where the studio is closed during hArt in September each year, this greatly raises the profile of the studio to potential members or casual visitors to events. Carrying over hours from this week is permitted.
Of course you can!
From 2023 we have introduced application forms for the gallery and hArt to even the playing field and open up the process of selling to all!
We ask for some basic information that many other galleries or events would ask from you as a maker that help us advertise on social media. All applications will be considered and responded to in good time.
Applications for exhibitions are advertised head of each individual event.
Unfortunately it is again a capacity and demand issue. Everything in the studio rotates around how many shelving units we can fit in the studio and how often we can fire our kilns; and we are for the time being maxed out.
We understand that many people may not be able to commit to the jump between 4 to 12 hours, but we cannot fit another kiln in the studio without sacrificing making space or members shelves.
