Staff & Visiting Artist Sale and Show
Chicago, August 18th, 2005 - Lincoln Square Pottery Studio will be hosting a Staff and Visiting Artist Sale and Show on Saturday, August 27th, 2005, from the hours of 6:00 pm - 10:00 pm. Enjoy some snacks, have a drink, listen to music and enjoy the arts! Raku Field Trip
The field trip will be a day long event and will include discussions about raku and the glaze, and firing of up to 3 pieces. Raku is a Japanese glazing technique. It involves firing a glazed pot in a hot kiln until the glaze has become red hot and melted, and then placing the piece into it in a metal bin filled with combustibles (such as straw, leaves and sawdust). This smokes the piece and causes the glaze to come out with very beautiful iridescent colors. The location will be just outside of Chicago (due to city codes regarding raku firing), so transportation must be arranged. everyone will meet at the studio, and then leave in groups. The groups must be as large as 5 but no more than 10. Each student is encouraged to bring their own water, snacks and anything else they might need for a day outing. Students must bring their own pre-bisqued pieces for the raku fire, and will be able to take their finished piece home with them that day. The trip cost $50 per student. Contact Meg (773) 248-4430 for more information. Read more news in the Archive. |
