Wood Firing 101

Information session for those interested in participating in a Wood Fire Workshop a TBD weekend in January or February 2014.

The introduction meeting includes a history of wood fire in US and California, and particularly the Spring Valley Anagama and Nobori kilns; types of local clay that have had great results in the Spring Valley Wood Fires; safety gear; glazes; the process.

Attendees will be invited to a Thanksgiving weekend firing of the Anagama Kilns to see first hand the process. And, then those that are interested in making the commitment of time and resources will be able to participate in the mid winter OVCAG Wood Fire Workshop. (The dates are dependent upon the availability of the kiln, particularly due to weather conditions. The wetter the weather the more opportunities are available.)

Introduction meeting and November observation firing is free to all who attend. More information for the mid-winter wood fire workshop is still to be announced.
