Inspired by the raw beauty of nature, and in particular the NSW scenic South Coast, Part Time pieces are eclectic and varied. From functional dinnerware to the odd wall hanging - you’ll find that no two items are the same.
After a few months of searching for a local studio to take residency in I quickly resigned to the fact that there were none in the South of Sydney. This is where you come in. I needed a space but I couldn't justify leasing one just for myself, and so classes and workshops were added to agenda.
Sharing the studio with students and interns has quickly become my favourite part of running PTC. My job is basically making pots, meeting new people and having great chats with them - I can't believe it either.
