while in Apeldoorne I also visited a community ceramics studio opposite the museum. This inspiring space called the atelier is a branch of a wider society which helps cater for the needs of adults and children with disabilities and the elderly in the region. Their motto is to live, work, and learn from and with each other as not everyone can do it alone. The studio Offers work and daytime activities to people with a disability and using creative activities to encourage personal development. The group learn to make a good products and to work together in it. taking part in running the store learn customer service skills, Some of the people I met were making Xmas decorations and wall hangings in preparation for one of the fairs the studio participate in annually, The store itself had the best ceramics and fibre art and the studio was public facing so you could see from the outside works in progress and the makers in action such a great friendly and welcoming space and community initiative definitely and top notch community model
