Mt Pleasant Pottery Group - Christchurch
We have moved!
The Redcliffs Community Building, at 140 Main Road, Redcliffs, Christchurch, will be our 'Home' for at least the next 10 years. This site is not so far from our original rooms that were attached to the old Mt Pleasant Community Centre.
Looking forward to seeing you at the Open Day.

The Mt Pleasant Pottery Group was established in 1960 and prior to the 2011 earthquakes had over 100 members. Our members came mainly from the eastern suburbs, but also from across Christchurch and surrounding towns. We lost our studio, that was attached to the Mt Pleasant Community Centre, in the 2011 earthquake and since then our club has been kept alive by stalwart members finding facilities at other clubs and even a home studio. This enabled many new students and members to take part in the club's activities, including adult classes, demonstrations, workshops, sales days and the annual exhibition. We also run School Holiday classes for children in Phillipstown Hub area.
We have potters whose skills range from those who are experienced and nationally recognised through to those just discovering the joys of playing with clay. New members are always welcome to come and play. |
