A seven day cone 10, single fire workshop, consists of four days of throwing and trimming functional sized work. On the fourth day we glaze, load and light the kiln, then fire it off on the fifth day. A quick cool and unload on the sixth day ends with a discussion of the work as well as an in depth discussion on glazes and materials. After the kiln is loaded and while it is firing and cooling we will throw larger forms including sectionals. The focus of the workshop is about the process of how I make my single fired work from start to finish.
- This workshop takes place during the cooling week of the October Big Magic Anagama firing. If you are interested in participating in the Big Magic firing the information is here on this site under October Firing.
- Workshop Fee includes 50 pounds of clay with more available to purchase at .75 per pound. We will start Sunday the 19th at 1 pm, no lunch will be served this day. Each day we will go from 9am till approximately 5pm with a break mid-day. Saturday will end around 2:00 after unloading the kiln and talking about the work. Studio access is open from 6 am till 10 pm. All attendees are welcome to stay for Big Magic Anagama unloading the following day.
- All you need to bring is your tools and boxes/packing for taking work home.
- I will only take 12 participants.
- There are several hotels close by in the Gardner and Olathe area as well as several B&B's.
- I live on 30 wooded acres so camping is an option, at no charge. The studio is equipped with not very fancy bathroom but no shower.
- Lunch is provided each day which is vegetarian.
