It's a free showcase of the super ceramics created during courses which have been running at the Barony Chambers, next to the Auld Kirk.
Facilitator Meredith Crone has been providing inspiration, firing up imaginations and working with promising potters locally for the last decade.
The official opening is on Saturday 8 March 2025 at 2.30pm. All welcome.

"As well as exploring a wide range of pottery styles and techniques, you can also find out a bit more about why people love the artform – which combines creativity, skill and patience, resulting in unique and beautiful creations."
