Quiet Hearts Clay Workshop
Join our Quiet Hearts Clay Workshop
Connect with likeminded quieteers for a Quiet Hearts Clay Workshop at CREATE Contemporary Crafts Hub, Camborne on Tuesday 26th May 2026 6-8pm.
This workshop is part of HushFest - Cornwall's Festival of Quietness.
Come and make something with your hands in the company of quieteers who truly get it. No experience is needed, and no particular skill is required. Sally from Create CIC will guide you through the process of rolling, shaping and decorating your hearts. Come as you are.
It is a safe space to have a go at something new in your own time and at your own pace, as part of a community that understands the quiet experience from the inside. A donation towards materials and firing would be appreciated, but is not required.
We are looking forward to seeing you there.

Angela Hatherell
Hi, I’m Angela. I’ve spent my life quietly working my way through several different careers, having trained as an architect and worked in practice, research and education, and also in film, television and arts management. I always felt most at home by the sea, so in 2018 I made the decision to move to Cornwall with my cockapoo, Artie.
Once here I cofounded Create CIC in Camborne, with the aim of giving anyone access to creativity, regardless of experience, ability or income. We run workshops, and offer access to equipment and studio space, for pottery, glass and jewellery. If you’re ever in town pop by and say hello!
As a quiet person who is also a director of a community interest company in Cornwall, discovering Quiet Connections has been a revelation to me. It has challenged my perception of my own and others’ quietness and allowed me to see it as a strength rather than a barrier – I can be successful, socially and professionally, because of, not in spite of, my quietness.

Hi, I’m Hayley.
I, too, am a quieter person. As a highly sensitive introvert, I love and appreciate my quiet strengths now, but I spent much of my life not feeling good enough and experiencing social anxiety. I missed so many opportunities and connections because I was afraid of being judged harshly, criticised and rejected –and because I doubted that I had the ‘right’ personality to succeed. Now, I’m passionate about helping quiet people discover their unique qualities, gifts, passions and experiences and explore how best to use these to express themselves more authentically, connect more meaningfully and contribute to their world in a way that works with their quieter or more sensitive nature – and I’d love to connect with you at one of our Meet Ups.
