Russell Coates has taught pottery in Frome since 1988. At one time Russell taught all the classes, ran study trips to Morocco and Crete, and built a wood fired snake kiln in the College grounds. Russell teaches three classes on a Thursday when he also fires the gas kiln, enabling students to experience Stoneware Oxidation and Reduction firing. He offers instruction in a wide range of pottery projects and help with individual areas of interest.
