Pottery Workshop results
Above are photos of some of the pots made at the Pottery workshop at Vale of Clwyd in which some Wirral members partook.

The selection of pots here serve to visually illustrate the phenomenal success of the pottery workshop help recently at Green Dragon Bonsai. The Vale of Clwyd Bonsai Society had organised a workshop at which participants were given the the choice of making either a rectangular pot or a cascade. Despite the fact that many of us had little or no experience of manipulating clay the patience and skill of Dave Jones ensured everyone finished the day with a pot to be proud of.
V.O.C.B.S. are proposing to hold another such event during 2011 and I would encourage anyone interested in having a go at making a bonsai pot to sign up.
A really successful event, Good banter, coupled with precise and humorous direction. Many thanks to Dave Jones and Walsall Ceramics

Membership
New members are always welcome, just come along to one of our monthly meetings at the RAFA club. You can even 'try us out' for a few months before you decide on joining as an official member. The meetings are informal (there's a bar!) and the club members are (mostly) friendly, approachable and happy to pass on guidance and information to anybody interested in bonsai- whatever your level of experience.
