This class will enhance your skills in both wheel thrown and hand built forms designed to fire in a variety of kilns, but with a focus on wood firing in particular. Although we will be working towards a wood firing at the Hutchins Wood Kiln, we will also be preparing for the new gas kiln being built in late summer, which will use similar clays, glazes and slips. Demonstrations and presentations will be given routinely throughout the session. This is a tremendous opportunity to learn about wood firing, and will be the last wood fire class until next spring. A separate firing fee will be assessed based on the total number of people firing and will cost between $100-$150. This fee will be paid to Deb Hutchins prior to firing. Students are not required to fire to be part of the class. All students should have completed a minimum of one beginning level class or equivalent.
