Practical Glaze Chemistry

Don't miss out on the opportunity to learn from the esteemed potter and glaze expert, Ronald Boersen, who is making a special trip from Auckland to guide us in the art of creating stunning glazes. With his vast experience in pottery and glaze chemistry, as well as his role as a moderator for the popular Facebook group, Understanding Glazes, Ronald is eager to share his expertise.

This intensive five-day workshop is perfect for potters wanting to learn about glaze creation (cone 6–10) and for seasoned potters wishing to expand their knowledge. Attendees will delve into glaze composition, practice testing techniques, analyse fired results, and acquire practical skills for modifying glazes.

Ronald's dynamic teaching approach simplifies the complexities of glaze chemistry through the use of visual aids and storytelling. Detailed handouts will further enrich your learning journey.
