Instructor: Suzanne Molyneux
Experience Level: All
1 Day / Sunday, 10:00am-4:00pm

Learn the basics of low fired glazes, application, and firing techniques in this one-day workshop. Bring your own bisque-ware or purchase from a wide range of pre-made pieces. In just a few hours, everyone will leave with a beautiful piece of raku. Pots should be no wider than 6" and no taller than 12"; avoid flat forms. You should plan on firing no more than 5 pieces. If time permits, we will fire extras. Workshop starts promptly at 10am and runs through the day until all students have completed firing their pieces. Note: Please wear cotton clothing; synthetic or wool clothing can get damaged with heat around the kiln and the reduction chambers. Long hair and loose clothing must be tied back.
