Hello John,
I think your best bet is to see if the Pickering Potters Studio give
classes. I believe it is located in the Pickering Community Centre
which is located on the street east of the Pickering Mall. You also
might consider joining Fusion: The Ontario Clay and Glass
Association, 416-438-8946, <>.
They are having a conference in Toronto May 28-30, featuring two
wonderful potters, Suze Lindsay and Nick Joerling. Another guild to
join in your area is the Durham Potters Guild. I have found in the
past that belonging to a guild is a good way to meet like minded
people and to get involved in clay, especially if you do not have a
studio of your own.
Good luck,
Meticky Liz from Grafton, only one hour east of Oshawa.
