A potter, TV star and storyteller is set to captivate audiences during an evening of clay, conversation and history.
Keith Brymer Jones, best known as a judge on Channel 4’s Great Pottery Throwdown, will appear in Oswestry on October 6 to share stories from his career and discuss his new book, Firing Earth.
Firing Earth explores the world of pottery through a deeply personal lens, blending history, anecdotes and reflections on the art of ceramics.
He will guide the audience on a journey from Roman kilns in North London to urinals in Scotland.
