St Ives in the 1920s: The Leach Pottery talk
When Bernard Leach founded his pottery in St Ives in 1920, he stepped into what was arguably the most artistically vibrant town in England outside London. This illustrated talk by Janet Axten traces how the cultural organisations that had grown up in St Ives over the preceding three decades developed alongside the Pottery through its first decade. Part of the St Ives September Festival programme, the talk takes place at the Leach Pottery itself — a fitting setting for an afternoon exploring the creative community that shaped it. Booking details are available on the venue's website.
