From 3rd to 12th September, the SPA will be hosting a showcase of members' work at The Bield, Blackruthven, Perth. A cross between an exhibition and a sale of work, members will have the opportunity to put a selection of their work on display along with business cards/flyers to introduce their work to a new audience. The public will have the opportunity to see one of the biggest collections of the works of Scottish-based potters and ceramic artists in recent years.
Each day there will be demonstrations:
