It‘s holiday camp time, the perfect time to create in clay. Join us at The Clay House for ceramic classes,

on one instruction for the students. Our clay classes will engage the clay keeners in expressing themselves
through clay, while building new skill sets. Students will have the opportunity to work with all the tools and
materials the professionals use while receiving instruction from accomplished ceramics artists. The format of
these courses allows for the fledgling artists to create more involved projects. The structure of practicing the
techniques learned for three consecutive days helps the students to develop a proficient use of skills they are
learning.
Courses include all non–toxic materials, tools, and firing. Students will create objects the first two days and
on the final day students will finish their work with bright colourful slips. Staff will then bisque fire, clear glaze
and glaze fire the finished work. Mid morning snack will be provided. Work will be available for pick up
approximately 2–3 weeks later. Cost: $280.00 with 10 available spaces each session.

Have you ever loved an animal? Have you ever wondered why they are so loyal?
Hachiko is a celebration of the remarkable joy and companionship that an animal can bring to our
lives. Simplicity, beauty and gentle poetic storytelling ensures both children and adults will be drawn
into the loyalty one dog has for his master.
This is a heartwarming true story from Japan that draws you into the life of a dog that waited at a
train station for 9 years for his master to return. Spare Parts brings you a remarkable once in a life-
time experience that will stay with you long after you leave the theatre. This is truly a show for the
whole family to share.
