*Each participant is welcome to take their piece with them on the day(but be advised that the clay will not survive long term in this state) or can pay a small additional fee* to get the piece fired in our kilns(this process requires an adequate amount of time)

The ceramic process:
We start with raw clay, we produce our beautiful pottery creation using handbuilding methods, slabs, coils, etc.
Once completed we leave to dry, this can take several days for the piece to be fully dried out, any moisture left inside will cause the piece to crack or potentially explode in the kiln so the drying is not the be rushed.
Once fully dried, we fire the piece, this is essentially cooking it in a ceramic oven called a kiln.
