About Bethlehem Pottery Club
In the 1960s pottery was well underway in Tauranga and several full-time potters lived locally. In 1965 a group of potting enthusiasts met regularly at the art room of the newly established Otumoetai College and formed the Tauranga Pottery Club.
Membership soon reached 50. By the mid-70s when pottery was popular and evening classes were constantly full, two friends began a pottery group at Bethlehem Primary School in 1975, borrowing films from the National Library to increase their knowledge and hone skills.
The Bethlehem Pottery Club became an incorporated society in 1979, and by 1980 was able to lease Bethlehem Primary School’s old schoolmaster’s house in Carmichael Road. After many years of fundraising and working bees, the current purpose-built studio on Bethlehem Rd was complete and in February 1991 the club moved in. The building was officially opened in September that year.
We are hugely grateful to our founding members and everyone who has helped build the club over the years. As a result of their significant time, effort, determination and tireless fundraising, we now have the use of excellent clubrooms and an extensive range of equipment.
