We’re running the kiln nonstop to get the last few items done before we go on break for the holidays. Check Google maps after Dec 24 if you’re coming to pick something up, or buy clay, because it will have the most accurate schedule.
We have gift certificates online, but you can stop in for a physical copy too. We have lots of handmade ceramics at all price points. Thanks for a great tenth year, and we look forward to doing pit fires, more raku, and other workshops in 2026.

For those who haven’t been, we’ll have local potters, abandoned name-your-price pots, plenty of holiday cheer and RAKU ornaments that you can paint and fire. There will also be a wheel that you can try and volunteers to help you throw. Grab a locally made tamale and a champurrado.
What’s Raku? It’s a method of glazing and firing pots, very quickly. In less than an hour you can have a finished glazed piece to take home. We’ll have a variety of ornaments (2D and 3D), trees, and more that you can choose to glaze, for $10-$15. Stick around for the whole process (maybe grab a bite) or we can finish it for you. The best part of Raku is that the pieces are removed from the kiln when they are red hot, then transferred to flammable material such as sawdust, which starts them on fire. They are promptly covered and the resulting smoke and reduction environment produces unexpected results.

We’ll use screen printing techniques to create a custom sheet of underglaze transfers.
There is some homework and a video to help you prepare your sample file before class. November 23 we’ll print your art and make a screen. Then we can use underglaze to create transfer sheets for use on your pottery, and swap designs between ourselves.
