Set in the context of Sheffield’s industrial past, this half-day workshop will let you get to grips with raku firing – an exciting firing method known for its variations of outcome. Guided by ceramicist Laura Lee, you’ll learn various traditional glazing methods, creating two unique pieces of pottery to take away with you.
Laura Lee creates wheel-thrown ceramic vessels informed from shapes and textures found in local forests and woodlands. She practices the process of Raku and captures through various glazing techniques, movement and energy to her ceramic artworks. Her collections are intrinsically linked to environmental issues caused by damage to the natural world through climate change.
These workshops are limited to 8 participants per session, ensuring a rewarding hands-on interactive learning experience through focussed tuition
