YAC
Oct 08, 2016, 21:19
Dafydd, Sophie and myself attended this months YAC meeting today and had a talk from a member of the museum staff on Bronze Age pottery. We were shown examples of he different styles of pot and the patterns used. We were then given clay to make our own pots and experimented with different types of 'temper' - grit / sand / hay. We eventually made our pots which will now be fired in a kiln in time for our next meeting next month. Assuming they survive we will be given a further talk about recent research into the colouring used on Bronze Age pots before we colour our own creations. It was a great way to spend a Saturday morning with the family - educational and fun. I will let you know how we get on next month. Did the pots survive? What will we use to colour them? Looking forward to it! I can highly recommend the YAC to children of all ages!
