Raku Ceramics Course with Helen Ashton - FULLY BOOKED

FULLY BOOKED!

Now taking bookings for 2025!

Join us for our second Pottery retreat in France! Spend seven days, including four days of tutored time, in a beautiful studio where you will explore hand building, decoration and glazing workshops, together with spectacular outdoor firings drawing the week to a close. With free time to be at relax, swim, walk and enjoy the French country way of living, this is a truly creative and relaxing week in rural France.

Your ceramics tutor for the week will be Helen Ashton - a teacher from The Clay Studio, East Sussex, specialising in Raku techniques, and also a ceramic artist in her own right. She has over a decade of experience in outdoor alternative firing techniques, guiding Raku and Obvara workshops, together with weekly classes and sculptural courses. With her scientific background she developed a fascination for the interaction of glaze components and the raw surface of clay. Her pieces are hand built, thrown and sculpted, both decorative and functional.

Your time at The Mill will include:

  • Hand building techniques, coiling, pinching and kurinuki.

  • Experienced support through all processes and outdoor firings

  • Japanese Raku gas firing method, an ancient technique producing colour from fire

  • Obvara firings for a fiery finale

In addition to the course activities led by Helen, you will be looked after at The Mill by our wonderful host Nathalie Edwards. The beautifully restored historic flour mill provides a variety of styled rooms from French rustic charm to quirky industrial comfort. Plenty of communal areas, including the stunningly peaceful Library, and outdoor seated areas along the river bank.

Rustic Mediterranean inspired meals, featuring locally sourced produce are served outdoors under a shady Pergola or in the communal dining area within the Mill, can be requested.

River swims on the doorstep, yoga and plenty of walking/ hiking trails directly from The Mill into nearby hills and medieval villages with various restaurants, cafes and of course the local boulangerie!

You will also have the opportunity to visit the Farmers Market in the bustling Medieval heart of Millau Town Centre, Roquefort for cheese , or visit the Millau Viaduct Centre for those of you who have an interest in Norman Foster's magnificent Masterpiece.

Writing as Ritual
Sep
17
to 24 Sep

Writing as Ritual

Published author and poet and recent winner of The Poetry Societies Geoffrey Dearmer & Laurie Lee Prizes Dr.Juliette Morton, leads this exciting course. An invitation for all writers, whatever your level and working in any form, to incorporate ritual into their work. Intertwining a little magic into your way of working.

  • Time to write

  • Learning which rituals best serve your own writing lifestyle and creating your own

  • Time in nature 

  • Choosing  your own artefacts to create your perfect desk space/ “altar"

Are you a seeker?

Many authors are well known for their writing rituals. According to literary legend, Edith Sitwell lay in an open coffin for a while before she began her day’s work. Maya Angelou could work only in hotel or motel rooms. Truman Capote couldn’t begin or end anything on a Friday. Igor Stravinsky performed headstands when he needed a break, and Saul Bellow did 30 push-ups. For the work to go on, John Cheever required erotic release.

While these may be amusing eccentricities, the importance of ritual in writing practice is clear. We need particular conditions to sustain our work – often more than just a habit of writing and the space and time to think, reflect and conjure the words on the page. When the ritual of writing works, it can be incredibly potent. 

A complete writing ritual includes a distinct separation from the mundane and a deeper return to it. Taking place in the days leading up to the autumn equinox, the retreat will take inspiration from the notion of writing on the threshold, at the turn of the seasons, in the liminal space between real and imagined worlds, building new ritual practices that will deepen and strengthen our writing and establishing habits that will sustain us in the return to our daily lives after the retreat. 

During this week-long writing retreat we will reflect on the process of writing as a ritual and the holding of writing practice as a sacred space for play, deep listening, and transformation – of our work and ourselves.  We will take as our starting point the observations of anthropologists Arnold van Gennep and Victor Turner on ritual as having three distinct phases:

  • Separation from everyday activities.

  • Transition to an unstructured or “liminal” reality, where the participant becomes a walker or traveller.

  • Reassimilation into normal life, but more deeply than before.

During the week we will come together in the mornings for writing workshops, leaving the afternoons free for focused writing, walking, swimming, reading and relaxation. During the workshops we will consider how attention to seasonality, daily practices, embodiment, spirit of place, mythmaking and enchantment can inform our writing practices. Throughout the week we will play with ritual, exploring approaches that can help our writing such as releasing limiting beliefs and creating writing altars that help us to create sacred spaces for our work. Nathalie has also made a selection of stoneware Goddesses for you to choose from. You will make these your own through the process of Raku firing, guided by Nathalie. The sculpture is yours to take home, to be incorporated  into your sacred  desk/ work space/ altar.  

By the end of the retreat you will have: 

  • accomplished some new writing on your own project(s)

  • relaxed into writing and given your writerly self time to breathe and expand into our creative space and time together 

  • experimented with various/ techniques/rituals/writing prompts 

  • have created your own guidelines for writing as/ in ritual 

  • spent time reconnecting  with nature and yourself

  • have elements to take home to form or add to your own altar /sacred desk space

  • recharged and re-energised in a community of fellow writers,
