Where would be the appropriate place to put details on workshops being offered that would be of interest to RAT members?
I'm not talking just of my rather superb workshops :wink: but others that members may hear of. Apart from history specific artisans I can think of a number of contemporary artists who are very good in their modern work but who also have no problem in covering the historical aspect.
For example, I have been emailed a flyer for a chap in Spain who I used to buy my Terra Sigilatta from. He was trained by his father and now supplies a number of museums in Spain. He's running a weeks workshop specifically on creating terra sig.
Also I've booked on a glass making course with a very experienced craftsmen and when I spoke to him about recreating Roman glass he said 'no problem, you can do some on the course'.
Then of course if anyone goes on the courses they can write a review for other members to see if it is worth doing.
