About the event

Just in time to make Christmas presents!


Raku is a dramatic, fast, and exciting alternative firing technique! Red hot pieces are removed from the kiln and placed in a reduction chamber filled with combustible materials to create flashes of color in the glazes, and beautiful crackle effects embellished by the smoke in the reduction chamber.  An alternative soluble salts decoration style will be available. This workshop is appropriate for all levels of experience and is open to students 18 and older.


Bring your own pieces, up to 4, to be raku fired.  Firing is based on time and capacity and will be carried out in order.   Everyone is guaranteed at least 2 pieces, but we anticipate having space for additional.  Raku clay is the best clay body to use to minimize breaking pieces due to thermal shock.   Other clay bodies can also be used, but the risk of pieces breaking…
