About Creekside

A place to slow down and make

Nestled in Samford Valley and surrounded by bushland and birdsong, Creekside Pottery Studio is a warm and inclusive space where people can slow down, feel supported and let their creativity unfold.

Meet Deb Howells

Deb is the potter behind Creekside. She shares her love of clay through classes and workshops, and is happiest exploring raku firing, experimental glazing and sculptural forms inspired by nature.

In the studio there’s always an experienced guide on hand to help each person at their own pace, whether it’s your first time touching clay or you’re continuing a long creative journey.
