Starting in April 2004 I am giving a weekly course on the history of ceramics at the Alderley Adult Education College. The story begins with pottery remains from neolithic sites 10,000 years ago and comes right up to the superb productions of contemporary potters around the world. (The illustration is of a celadon jug of the Song dynasty in China, 11th century).

The cost is £65 for the 13-week course. To enrol contact Carol on 020 8013 6999.
