Service Description
Join us for this special 5 week course preparing work for atmospheric kilns, just in time for our upcoming salt firing workshop with Terry Plasket at the end of August! In this course, Dallas will discuss what salt firing is, differences in design for pots in atmospheric kilns, the nuances of working with cone 10 clay, and a variety of decorative and texture techniques for atmospheric firing as well as an overview of glazing and flashing slips. The class will also mix a few glazes and flashing slips specifically for the workshop. Students should have a basic understanding of creating ceramic pieces as intro skills will not be covered. All forms of making are welcome, from wheel-throwing to hand-building as well as sculpture! For more information on the salt firing process, register for our workshop with Terry!
