At our AGM in November 2025 we elected 3 new Regional Council Members – including Joshua Jones for Nelson Marlborough.

Josh is the co-owner of McGlashen Pottery, with his partner Coral. They have a ginger cat named Coriander and are loving being involved in a creative way with clay everyday. With a background in sales as well as film & television Josh loves the face to face experiences he gets in their Brightwater studio, meeting people and learning about their stories is a big part of where he gets his energy. Josh can’t wait to tell more stories about the fabulous ceramicists in the Top of the South.
