Description

Unlock creativity, colour, and technique in ceramics. Are you passionate about ceramics and eager to take your craft to the next level? Do you marvel at the gleaming, vibrant finishes on pottery and wonder how artists achieve such stunning surfaces? Welcome to our 'introduction to glaze course' - a start to your transformational journey into the science and artistry of ceramic glazing. Glazing is more than just the final step in ceramics. It is a magical blend of chemistry, creativity, and technique that gives each piece its unique beauty and character. Learning how to make your own glazes opens a world of possibilities, allowing you to: - Customise colours, textures, and finishes to suit your vision - Understand the materials and processes behind every shine and matte - Troubleshoot and resolve common glaze issues - Develop a personal style that truly sets your work apart - Gain control over food safety, durability, and surface quality - You will use materials to mix into recipes which will then be painted onto test tiles and fired. During the three weeks you will gain an understanding of recipes and technical details to transform your knowledge and ceramics. This course is just the start of your journey and can be continued in our 'Clay Club'. This workshop is for beginners or those that are already on their ceramic journey. 2nd September, 16th September and 30th September 2025, 6-8pm.
