The Clay Hub Collective

Since April 2015 I have  been busy as a new member of the Clay Hub Collective which is located at 2375 Koksilah rd.Cowichan Station BC V9L6M5.
I  have been taking classes to gain more knowledge about clay and am a member as well  as a volunteer, and now a new board memeber.
If Clay and Pottery is your thing come check out the Clay Hub Collective. Its 100% Volunteer run.
There are on going classes and other activites. Website: www.theclayhubcollective.com 
Lots of information  for you there.

HERE ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF WHAT I HAVE BEEN DOING AT THE CLAY HUB
