Raku Workshop Raku: A Japanese word freely interpreted as "enjoyment". First produced in 1580, it is a low-fired glazed pottery procedure where red hot pots are taken out of the kiln and smoked in a bed of sawdust, wet straw, or leaves and sometimes cooled in water. The result is often dramatic smoke filled crackled ware of intense and unusual color and texture. Instructors Larry, Judy and Ky Bruning. Saturday 31 May 08 Anytime from 12:00 till 6:00 pm ... please allow at least 2 hours to fully experience the event. $60.00 fee includes instruction and pots(*), glazes, firing, and snacks. Current students, make your own pots for firing in class before the workshop or non-students can purchase additional pots from us... ranging from $4.00 to $20.00 for pots suitable for Raku.
*Pots included with class fee are a Vase, a bowl, and 2 test pieces. Additional pots are available for purchase to glaze and Raku fire. |
