About the event
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. This workshop is appropriate for all levels of experience and is open to students 16 and older.
Bring your own pieces, up to 6, to be raku fired. They must be no taller than 8 inches and no wider than 6 inches. Because of spacing, plates and wide bowls should be avoided for this firing. Your pieces must be bisque fired to between cone 08 to 04 using Stoneware or Raku clay. Glazes will be provided. Feel free to email us if you have any question about specialty pieces. as we will be firing throughout lunchtime, drinks and snacks will be provided…
