This specialty alternative-firing workshop is a two-day hands-on experience focused entirely on handbuilt ceramic forms. You will create multiple pieces using techniques like pinch, coil, and slab construction, with an emphasis on form, texture, and intentional design.
After the workshop, students can sign up for an included firing session later in the summer, where their pieces will be glazed and fired to completion in our outdoor Raku kiln. Raku firing is a fast-paced, dramatic process, that students will get to watch their pieces pulled from the kiln with tongs while glowing hot orange! Raku produces bold colors and metallic finishes, making every piece completely unique. Students must be at least 8 years old to participate. All work will go home with students the same night of the firing.
$215 includes 2 days of creating - and a following community raku firing!
