Artist’s Lunch with ceramic artist Ashley Howard

Saturday 20 September 1 – 3pm
HG Café Newlands House Gallery

Join us for a special closing celebration of Interplay, the stunning showcase of work by renowned ceramic artist Ashley Howard. Enjoy a cup and a delicious lunch from HG Café while hearing Ashley speak about his practice, his passion for clay, and the making of his latest body of work.

Howard is a celebrated British potter whose vessels fuse East Asian ceramic traditions with bold experimentation. In Interplay, the potter’s wheel becomes a tool of expressive force, glaze turns into glue, and each form carries a sense of ritual and transformation.

His works are alive with process, fired, reworked, and reimagined until they strike a delicate balance between control and chance.

Described as “an assured but rigorous explorer,” Howard invites us to see ceramics not as static objects, but as events unfolding in time, always shifting, always in flux.

Come for the conversation, stay for the food, and experience Interplay one last time.

Ticket £20 includes a hot drink, quiche, salad, and dessert.
