Pottery with Mascha - Explore modelling with Air Dry Clay. Saturday, 19 September 2026 at 1pmJoin Mascha, founder of Cusha's Clay Classes in Plett, for a session of guided pottery and modelling with Air Dry Clay. Explore your creative side in this immersive workshop, hosted at Raphaeli Waldorf's first ever 7 Lively Arts Festival.About Mascha:Mashca Macushla Taylor believes that the facilitator is the guide, but the clay is the teacher.Raised in a wonderfully creative family, Mashca's love of form, colour and texture was nurtured by her artist mother and writer father. Her journey has woven together art, community development and human potential—from working with elderly people, individuals with autism and differently-abled adults, to facilitating creative workshops that foster dignity, connection and wellbeing.After rediscovering clay through ceramic artist Lesley Etherington, Mashca found her true creative home. She now runs Cusha's Clay Ground, where she facilitates clay experiences for adults, children, schools, hotels and rehabilitation programmes. She is also the founder of Fynbos Treasures, a social enterprise supporting local women while donating a portion of its proceeds to conservation.For Mashca, clay is far more than a medium—it is a gentle teacher that invites curiosity, creativity, healing and play.
