Make your own Underglaze transfers
We’ll use screen printing techniques to create a custom sheet of underglaze transfers.
There are two parts, the first is online/ zoom November 2., where we’ll prep a sample file and talk about different subject matter.
The second part is in-person, November 9, and we’ll print your art and make a screen. Then we can use underglaze to create transfer sheets for use on your pottery.

We asked and you answered. Throwing Big is our next workshop. Because it’s limited to 8 wheels, we have 2 different Sundays you can join us. Then there will be a Raku firing for Halloween, Underglaze Transfer workshop, and something yet to be decided for the end of November. Find any of those in the workshops tab as we release them. We’ll top the year off with a big holiday sale and another Raku party December 7th.

August 10, the Second Sunday, we’ll be having a neighborhood pottery sale. Leilani’s Hawaiian food truck will be there 12-3, so bring your appetite. We’ll have tons of pots, a wheel for you to play, and a raku firing on the patio. Come paint an ornament or ring dish and then pull it out of the hot kiln for some ceramic magic. Kid friendly.
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, ring dishes, and incense holders 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.
