Not only a great place for learning crafts, but set in a beautiful area next to Great Linford Manor and At Andrew's church. Andy McDermott is a great ceramics tutor, knowledgeable and encouraging. I now have my own wheel. The arts centre now has a community kiln where you can get your stoneware glazed and fired for a reasonable price. Clay is available, 10 for 12.5kg at present. Please contact the arts centre for more information and the form for firing if you want to use their kiln.

Lovely art centre with good variety of classes on offer. I attended two terms of ceramics classes and loved it. The instructor was knowledgeable and patient and the other ladies in the class friendly and helpful. A good place to explore your creativity!

I attended full of fun and creativity ceramic course. I enjoyed it enormously. It took long time to get pieces back and some were missing, however the course itself was very enjoyable.
