Medieval Tile making

Todays workshop is in the John James Room, through the gate and to the right.

Just a few place left, but the May workshop is now on Headfirst too. Sat May 30th.

Make a replica medieval tile or follow the technique with your own design. The course involves making 2 to 4 tiles.

Tile designs can be created by impressing or carving into the clay, once you have pressed or carved your tile, a lighter colour clay is pressed in. After a short wait allowing the inlayed clay a chance to partially dry the tile is scrapped back to reveal the inlayed design.

The first part of the class you will inlay a pre-pressed tile, this is made with a replica mould copied from tradition design, the second part of the class you will create a medieval or contemporary tile using your own designs.

The workshop is at Windmill City Farm Philip St, Bristol BS3 4EA. The class is 12:30 4:30pm

Saturday 28th of March: Windmill Hill City Farm.
Saturday 30th of May: Windmill Hill City Farm.
