Art Weeks: Aston Pottery

So last week my dad saw an advert for Aston Pottery in the "Ox Magazine" so today we decided to take a drive out there and see what was on display. When we pulled up the front gate was covered in "Oxford Art Weeks" posters and there was an exhibition of work by local artists in the upstairs gallery.

Walking through the shop you could see the quality of goods being produced and sold, very traditional pottery and items normally found in a garden centre shop but also a variety of unusual jewellery, glassware, crockery etc.

The drive to Aston was particularly inspiring, the sat nave took us through loads of small villages and past fields of growing crops like the photograph seen above. 

The exhibition offered a variety of works by some local talented artists, I will be doing separate posts on each of the artists shortly. 

I would recommend Aston Pottery to any of my classmates or artists who want to see a range of unique ceramic pieces and especially during Art Weeks to see the inspirational works on show.
