Spring Greetings!
It's been a busy spring around here! If you haven't heard, we are expecting a addition to our family at the beginning of July. We've been busy making more pots, building kilns, parenting Esther (19 mo. old) and preparing (renovating) our house to welcome our new baby boy. All that being said, I've had to pare down my show commitments for the 2026 season. For the clay-makers reading this, I will be offering rocket kiln mini-workshops, firing my home studio, a few times this summer and fall.

Interested in firing a Rocket Kiln, but don't want to take a whole workshop?
I will be firing my woodfired rocket kiln a number of times this summer and fall and want to extend an invitation to YOU! The kiln holds about 8 cu. ft. of glazed work. We'll be firing to cone 8 or 10+ in reduction. I'm limiting each firing to 3 participants so everyone will get about 2-3 cu. ft. of space in the kiln. Cost to participate is $100 and includes access to my studio glazes and 2 meals on Saturday. We will unload and clean-up on Sunday afternoon.
Firing Dates: July 25 & 26, September 12 & 13, and November 14 & 15
