Art and Ceramic centre in the Dordogne

Activity holidays and ceramic workshops in the south west of France

La Perdrix, formerly a 13th century monastery and more recently a painting school is now a ceramic art centre, hosting activity holidays, residencies and ceramic/art workshops.

The centre is located on the outskirts of the village of Saint Martin de Riberac, Dordogne, France in a hectare of land with gardens and swimming pool.

There is sufficient accommadation to cater for groups and the studio/barn includes a host of ceramic equipment.

We are inviting enthusiastic potters/artists or those wanting to learn to join us for a week's raku workshop run by Mick Morgan. See Mick's web for more info

Learn to make and fire a gas fibre kiln. Discover application of oxides, coloured & crackle glazes and masking techniques. Apply these to your hand built or thrown work and come away with your own finished & fired work and a wonderful experience in a beautiful environment . See photos of Cardiff students recent successful workshop above.
