Creative Clay Workshop in Eastgate Centre

Shoppers young and old are being invited to take part in the last of the Clay Workshops being run at the Eastgate Centre between 9am and 12 noon on Thursday.

The workshop is free and forms a part of the hugely successful Green Business Forum's Art Challenge event exhibition being held downstairs also in the Eastgate Centre.

The aim is to make enough clay pieces for a mural that will become a permanent piece of artwork somewhere in Basildon town centre.

The task is suitable for everyone and all ages. Great artistic skills are not necessary. Plaster moulds are used to form the shapes and these can be decorated with the range of textures. It's easy and lots of fun.

Young children should have an adult with them. The work is messy but it washes out.

Join in and you will be able to identify your work when it’s all fired, glazed and installed in the town.

For more information, the organiser is Lisa Hawker of the ceramics and sculpture company of the same name based in Rayliegh, 01268 741352.
