The Bethlehem Pottery Club is one of the popular stops in the Bay of Plenty Garden & Art Festival Garden & Art Trail, which extends from Katikati to Paengaroa over four days, and ends today.

The club's exhibition features pottery and sculpture from 37 potters, with the club rooms set out during the four-day festival as a gallery.

It's proving to be a great spot to find unique items for home or garden, as well as shopping early for Christmas.
