Ramsgate Pottery

As well as hosting regular classes and workshops, the studio space and kiln are also available to hire for more experienced potters. The studio was founded by Gillian Farrell, a ceramics artist who was born in Belfast and studied Fine Art (specialising in Painting) at Winchester School of Art. She specialises in making one-off thrown and hand-built ceramics, layering colour and using gestural marks. Gillian was formerly Head of Art at The Grey Coat Hospital School in Westminster and currently teaches Ceramics and Art at The King's School in Canterbury. She has also run workshops with local community groups and taught at Clayspace in Margate, as well as offering private tuition at her own studio.
