ceramic flower workshop

What a wonderful day spent with AWAH. My ceramic flower workshop was a huge success. Over 50 ceramic flowers were created by adults and children.

All these wonderful flowers will be glazed and fired for AWAH window installation. A BIG thank you  from Manchester Airport Trust for funding this community project.
