Flameworks desperately needs to raise funds to rain proof the roof and fix the upstairs artist studios and the communal ceramics workshops.

Flameworks CIC studio holder and glass worker extraordinaire, Amy Whittingham, has a new book coming out in July. Here’s what Amy has to say…

“ I am so excited to tell you that Glass Casting is going to be published by Crowood Press in July 2019. It's been a long time in the writing but I am so proud to say that it will finally be with us in the next two months!”

Flameworks’ project coordinator and studio holder Louise Rabey has recently teamed up with Author Susan Lacey and her son Adrian to illustrate their magical book ‘The Magical Teddy Bear.’ A light-hearted colourful adventure about a teddy bear that comes to life and performs some good deeds around the world. Featuring a special foreword by Veronica Taylor who famously voiced Ash from the hit series Pokemon.

This is the Hembury Bowl. It’s curated and on permanent exhibition at Royal Albert Memorial Museum, Exeter. It was found by Dorothy Liddell in the 1930’s, whilst excavating the Iron Age Hillfort. During the excavation, the causewayed enclosure was found at the north end with a considerable amount of Neolithic pottery. The chronologies for this period were constructed by Stuart Piggott based on the assemblages and stratification of Windmill Hill which was excavated in the late 1920's.

Flameworks based ceramic artists Leigh Mason and Angie Wickenden will be at Barnstaple for Devon Pop Up’s event “Clay - a Festival of Ceramics” on Sunday June 30th, 2019.
