Westcountry Potters Association was established in 1993 and has been flourishing ever since, with over 500 members distributed throughout the South West of England.
Our aims are to increase public enthusiasm for the qualities of handmade pottery by an active programme of interesting and informative events and to provide the opportunity for the enjoyable and stimulating exchange of ideas with fellow potters at social gatherings.
