Spring bowl pottery workshop
Bottega Ceramica
Enter our sunlit studio and embrace the season with this Spring Bowl Making Workshop, designed for all skill levels. If you’re eager to dip your fingers into the world of ceramics and seek a mindful, creative experience, this workshop is an ideal opportunity to take a break and create something truly special. A skilled instructor will guide you through traditional hand-building techniques, teaching you how to shape your bowl using pinching and coiling methods. These tactile processes allow for organic creation, ensuring that each bowl boasts its own distinctive charm and character. Once your bowl takes shape, explore various decorative techniques to personalise your piece. Carve patterns, sculpt details, and add textures that reflect your style, whether minimalistic or playful and expressive. Complete your creation by decorating it with a palette of colourful slips. Experiment with brushes and sponges to apply soft spring hues, striking colour combinations, or intricate patterns that bring your design to life. After the workshop, leave your bowl at the studio to dry for bisque firing. It will then be glazed and fired again to ensure a durable, food-safe finish. Your unique piece will be ready for collection in a few weeks—perfect for serving, decor, or as a thoughtful handmade gift. All materials and tools are provided, and no prior experience is required. Simply sign up and enjoy the creative flow! Price: 30£ Saturday May 2 and Saturday May 9 (check booking link for availability)

Chair (or Co-Chairs) of the Board of Trustees
Parents and Carers in Performing Arts
PiPA delivers its charitable mission through close collaboration between the Chair (or Co-Chairs), Trustees, and the Co-CEOs, who together shape the organisation’s vision and strategy. The Board is committed to diversity, inclusion, and representation, and is seeking dynamic Co-Chairs, or a single Chair, to help guide PiPA’s next phase of growth. We’re looking for people who care deeply about making a difference, people who want to help shape a more compassionate, care-centred future for the performing arts. We would especially like to hear from candidates with a commitment to anti-racism, EDIB (equity, diversity, inclusion & belonging) and a track record of inclusive leadership. Applicants should have experience of charity governance and board practice with an inclusive and open approach to relationships and strong leadership skills. Our aim is to build a Board that truly represents the people we serve - in background, identity, experience, and voice. We want everyone to feel that they belong and can play a meaningful part in our work. The Chair / Co-Chair(s) will help us to sustain that culture. We especially welcome people with lived experience that reflects the realities of care - whether you’re a carer or parent or someone from a background or identity that’s often under-represented in leadership. If you’re passionate about what we do and ready to bring your experience to lead positive change in the performing arts, we’d love to hear from you. The total time commitment for the Chair equates to approximately 1-2 days per month (further details can be found in the job pack). Although being a Trustee / the Chair(s) is unpaid, all reasonable expenses of Board members incurred in the course of your duties will be reimbursed by PiPA in accordance with our expenses policy. This could include travel costs, accommodation, and the cost of covering your caring responsibilities. For full details of the role and how to apply, please download the Job Pack from our website.
