This workshop is an introduction to mid-range soda firing, with hands-on training in the process of loading, firing, and maintaining our crossdraft kiln named “Julia”.

Participants in this workshop will learn the fundamentals of atmospheric soda firing. The class will be instructed in the safety and care of the equipment as well as guided through the firing process.

This workshop includes instruction on glazing, wadding the ceramic pieces, loading the kiln, firing the kiln, and kiln maintenance. Demos and Lectures will also happen during the firing.

Participants will bring bisque-ware to be fired as bare clay or with slipped surfaces. There will be an assortment of flashing slips and glazes to apply to the bisqueware on loading day for those who choose to use them.

Each participant gets 1 cubic foot of firing space.

(Tip; Make sure all your pots fit approximately into a milk crate which is 1 cubic foot of space).

This firing will be a reduction fired cone 6 with sprayed soda at the end.
