This five-part class introduces ceramic artists to the fundamentals and creative possibilities of glazing. Participants will explore different glaze types, learn how to apply them effectively, and explore popular and experimental techniques. Through demonstrations, hands-on practice, and guided discussion, students will build both technical understanding and confidence in developing unique surface finishes.

Over the course of the class, we will test tiles and glaze foundations (class 1); understand the different glaze types (class 2); explore contemporary glazing techniques and kiln basics (class 3); learn about the peacock method (class 4); and delve into the frozen pond technique (class 5).

By the end of the workshop, you will have a deeper understanding of glaze chemistry, application methods, kiln firing basics, and several creative techniques you can continue exploring in your own ceramic practice.
