Raku firing, March 25
Studio Show March 30, 7-10 PM
Theme: " The Beautiful Sea."
A night of great art, food and music.
Open Sharing Nights
Open Critique Night. Last Friday of the month from 7-8 pm. Bring in your work to talk about with others to get opinions on results. Discuss form, glaze, aesthetics and characteristics. Also get feedback for those that are more serious about selling their work in the gallery and our 3 annual sales.
Open Glaze Sharing Every Second Friday of the month, from 7-8pm. Bring some pieces your would like to talk about that came out good or bad or just come to learn from each others experiences. Connect with other members to meet together.
More about Raku
Raku is a glaze firing technique, done outdoors in a gas fired kiln, instead of the indoor electric kiln. Unlike the electric kiln, pieces put into the raku kiln fire in minutes rather than hours, and are removed from the kiln while glowing red-hot. Next, the pottery is placed in a smoky reduction chamber to intentionally blacken unglazed areas of the piece, then plunged into cold water while still hot.
It's an exciting, participatory event that is fun for potters and observers alike.
Cost for firing members/nonmembers
up to 4" $5/$10
up to 8" $8/$13
over 8" $12/$17
