About:

Have you wanted to be part of a woodfiring in our Duncan Kiln?

This workshop is for members who have not been able to get into a wood firing group or who have very limited firing experience and who are keen to learn all about the wood firing process from start to finish.

The 8 weeks will comprise of making, glazing and wadding your work, culminating in a weekend firing.

Chris and Mike will introduce you to the process with a tour of the kiln, showing you what clay to use, what forms work well in a woodfiring, and all the nuances of this atmospheric firing.

Students must be available for the weekend of the loading and firing (7 & 8th Dec), and also available for unloading and clean up on the 11th of December, and must also be prepared to collect untreated wood throughout the term.
