 		 Hi there, I'm a NZ potter coming to Sydney in January for 12 months for an IT contract. I'm wondering if there are any potters in Sydney (central or eastern) that might be keen to sublet / share their workshops and facilities with me for 12 months? I would be there during the evenings and weekends. All my work is handbuilt so no dramas about a wheel; just looking for a sturdy table, drying space and occasional use of a kiln. very happy to pay / share costs to run. Would love to hear from anyone who might be keen to help me out with this. email is This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
