Shauna
THE HERITAGE OF CLOGHER VALLEY CELEBRATED THROUGH THE ART OF POTTERY AND GLASS
Step into the life of heritage crafts. Come and visit the home of Shauna and Paddy high up in the townland of Millix. You will find artworks and sculptures dotted around the location, and meet their family including 2 kids, a donkey, and a cat. A stunning view, a warm welcome and an opportunity to unleash your creativity.
Offering small bespoke workshops from her home, with also demonstrations provided on how Shauna’s own work is created, it is a real chance to meet the maker at work. Shauna offers craft experiences ranging from specialist traditional ceramic and glass workshops to also smaller scale workshops aimed as an enjoyable taster session. From the pottery wheel to outdoor firings, to the vibrant world of coloured stained glass, there is a wide range of options to cater to many different groups and levels. Remember all creations produced can be cherished and taken home after. Depending on the workshop some items can be taken away immediately, whilst others will need time to fire and either collected or posted on a later date. These workshops are also available as a mobile experience to cater for larger numbers around the Clogher Valley area. *(including Blessingborn Estate)
Remember no craft experience at Millix will leave without a cup of tea, a bite to eat and a laugh. A memory will be made.
