Raku Firing Workshop

You might be surprised to learn how accessible RAKU firing can be! Learn the process of using a Raku kiln and participate in the group firing to include 2-3 pieces (4-6 inches diameter, 8-10 inches in height) of your own work. Bring pieces that are bisque fired Raku clay (or cone 10 with grog) and be ready to glaze and fire them together.

Welcome guest artist/instructor (Tony Smith -- Red Hill Pottery) who has been creating fascinating pottery for decades as he guides the group through the process. He will share his expertise (tricks & tips) in a straight-forward, easy to understand manner with our firing taking place in his personal studio in Six Mile, SC.

This workshop is perfect for potters ready to move beyond typical cone 6 electric firing and experience the joy of catching things on fire-- in a safe manner, of course. Limited space is available-- so waitlist reservations can be added once the spots are filled in case of last minute changes in scheduling.

**Add-ons are available for horse hair or Obvara firings in addition to the traditional, Western glazed Raku firing.
