From Easter this year two new galleries within the York Art Gallery,will become a Centre of Ceramic Arts (CoCA).

These will allow much more of Bill's collection to be on public display, together with items from two more important studio pottery collections, namely that of Rev. Milner-White and of Henry Rothschild.

I will certainly be visiting

Sadly, it will be shown at York without Bill's dust. Cheeky

Dan, thanks for those YT links loved them, I was finding it difficult to listen as a voice in my head was guessing the potters and my eyes popping.

I'm going to see them too.

Great that we have such a fantastic collection being displayed with such care up here in God' own country (a friend is booked to work on the fit out - looking forward to updates from him)
