Glaze Mixology Workshop Feb 28, 2026!
Does the science behind the “perfect melt” feel like a mystery? Stop relying on pre-mixed glazes and start creating your own signature look! This workshop takes the “scary” out of glaze making, providing a hands-on environment to explore custom textures and colours.
This introductory, one day workshop is designed to transform your studio practice by demystifying the core components of glaze chemistry. We will move beyond the bucket, teaching you to:
Deconstruct Recipes: Learn glaze materials work together to create stable, beautiful finishes, and what recipes will work with your firing regime.
Identify Success: Learn how to find and evaluate reliable recipes from online databases and glaze journals.
Mix with Precision: Master the practical steps of weighing raw materials as we weigh and blend small batches from scratch.
Test Like a Pro: Create and safely fire test tiles to identify how recipes interact with your specific clay body.
Fees include: Expert instruction, raw materials for mixing two test glazes. Safety gear and respirators provided where necessary. A light lunch is included to keep the creative energy flowing.
