Bring 6-8 pieces maximum width of 8 inches and height of 12 inches ** there is no guarantee that all pieces will be fired - smaller pieces will fit a lot easier than bigger pieces Most-mid range groggy clay bodies are welcome (suggested clays are Bmix w/ Grog, Speckled Buff, Moroccan Sand) Some non-grog clay bodies will work fine if they are smaller pieces (Bmix) Pieces must be bisque fired prior to the workshop. Skinny wheel thrown or sculptural work is best. Plates and wide bowls are risky. We will be doing 4 firings in the 6 hour period. 3 regular raku firings and one naked raku (if required).
