A two-part raku pottery course with Mitchell Oliver. The first class focuses on greenware instruction, followed by glazing and firing on the second day.
Experience the unpredictable beauty and excitement of Raku firing in this two-part course with Mitchell Oliver.
Raku is an alternative firing method with roots in 16th-century Japan in which red-hot pottery is pulled directly from the kiln. The process embraces experimentation and the alchemy of clay, fire, and glaze, creating dramatic and often unexpected results.
The first class will focus on greenware instruction, followed by a second day dedicated to glazing and firing.
If you’ve ever wanted to experience the magic of pulling a glowing-hot piece from the kiln and seeing how fire transforms its surface, this is your chance.
Two-day course | November 1 & 15 | $150
Participants purchase their own clay from our clay studio. All other materials will be provided.
