All over the south of England, in tiny villages, town centres and seaside cottages, artists from the Southern Ceramic Group are getting ready for the highlight of the year, their exhibition at Bishop’s Kitchen at …

Chichester Cathedral

They are busy wedging clay, throwing pots and experimenting with glazes to come up with something unique and original.

For two weeks in August, 29th July – 13th August, they show the world their latest creations. The work will be as varied as they are, fr om functional tableware to abstract sculptures. This is the place to find that special gift. Sixty potters and over 600 pieces to view and buy.

Bishop’s Kitchen is easy to find, right in the city centre, next to the Cathedral; history on the doorstep – not to mention the shops and carparks within easy reach. Enter it in your diary.
