We will be having a Tuesday and Thursday morning class from 9.30-12.30 on an ongoing basis. Contact Kim about securing a place in one of these classes.
There will be an 8 week Wednesday evening course starting in April. Spaces are very limited and will work on a first come first served basis.

SATURDAY CLASSES.
There will be an 8 week class commencing at the beginning of April 2022 on a Saturday morning and afternoon respectively. These classes will be taught by my colleague, Eylene Clifford who is a past student of mine and who also exhibits her work in the gallery. There are limited places available, and the classes will be filled on a first come, first served basis.
FRIDAY MORNING POSSIBILITY
We are also considering starting a morning class from March or April on a Friday morning from 9.30 – 12.30. This will be a class for all levels. If you are interested in joining this class, please either write to Kim or call her on whats app.
LIFE DRAWING CLASSES
We are busy exploring the possibility of starting life drawing classes with a live model.
Please e-mail or what’s app me for more info on when these sessions will take place. They are currently in the planning stage. You are welcome to give us your input. We would welcome that.
Our new building is complete. We will be registering students from January for classes on a Saturday, as well as courses that are planned for March and April 2022.
If you are able to, you should follow us on face book and Instagram @kimsacksgallery – @kimsacksschoolofceramics to see on a very regular basis what we are up to.
We also have paper and textile programmes starting in February 2022. We will post the workshop programme as soon as it becomes available.
I will be posting class programmes on a regular basis.
There is also possibly an option to do an 8 week series of lessons, depending on avaibility.
You will be able to either do a beginners block for 8 weeks, or as a more advanced student, choose something you would like to explore for 8 weeks. If this block of classes interests you, please e-mail or call me on what’s app and let’s see what can be arranged to suit your creative needs.
You are welcome to e-mail or message Kim on whatsapp. As soon as I am able to call you, once I receive your message I will. I prefer a conversation to find out exactly what your personal needs are than only a written communication.
We are also planning regular Saturday workshops as well throughout the year, so if this interests you are welcome to put your name down on the “workshop-list”. This can be done sending Kim a what’s app indicating what your skill level is and what you are looking to learn.
We will also be offering classes for children during school holidays, and at half term. We also teach learners who are young and doing home schooling.
We also welcome people, who cannot commit to ongoing classes, under the current Covid 19 season, but who you would like to come occasionally to work with clay.
If you need to find out more about the classes, in 2022, in Parkwood you can either send Kim a message via what’s app or have a look at the school section of the website. We also have a fabulous instagram page which is constantly being updated. #kimsacksschoolofceramics
There are lots of possibilities. Clay heals. It is a Balm. It is Magical and takes us to far-away places inside ourselves. Come and explore.
