Gathering Light: Make

Take time away from the usual demands of everyday life and join us at Aubourn Hall for Gathering Light, a seasonal pottery experience inspired by the gardens as they move towards winter.

Across three events, you can make, colour and illuminate your own ceramic lanterns. Spend time outdoors noticing what catches your curiosity, enjoy working with clay and colour, then come together as the afternoon darkens to see the finished lanterns lit.

There is no need to know anything about pottery or arrive with an idea. Karen Morrissey of Swallowbeck Potter will guide you through the techniques, with room to experiment and enjoy creating alongside others. Tea and cake are part of the Make workshop and the final Light gathering.
