- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 14 Feb, 2026 at 05:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Glaze Lab — Rain Season Ceramic Studio Night &amp; Stay

Glaze Lab is a small, experimental studio night focused on glazing, surface work, and process.
Tiny groups. Hands-on. Informal.

Studio nights run regularly through winter and spring.
Midweek and weekend dates available by request.

This is a one-night studio stay centred on open glaze testing and experimentation.
It’s not a class and not a workshop in the usual sense — it’s a low-key, off-season lab for people who already work with clay and want space to try things they wouldn’t normally risk at home.

⸻

What this is

Glaze Lab is a very small, overnight studio experience for curious makers from Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland.

Most people arrive Friday night or early Saturday, spend a focused block of time glazing, and head home Saturday evening or Sunday. It’s meant to fit easily around real life — not a big production or retreat.

Instead of recipes or step-by-step instruction, the studio is set up as a lab: tables prepared with different glaze approaches, materials, and simple setups that invite testing, layering, movement, and surface disruption.

You’ll choose a few things that catch your interest and spend time with them, rather than rushing through everything.

⸻

How the glazing works

This is about process over outcomes.

Before touching your actual pieces, you’ll practice movement, timing, and layering using low-stakes materials and test surfaces. This lets you try pours, splatter, wipes, gravity effects, and other approaches before committing them to your work.

Some approaches are simple. Others may be unfamiliar even if you’ve been working with clay for a while. The point isn’t mastery — it’s access, curiosity, and seeing what happens.

Think:
	•	permission to try
	•	low pressure
	•	no “right” results
	•	ideas you can take home (or decide not to use again)

⸻

What makes this different
	•	Very small group (kept intentionally intimate)
	•	No formal teaching or critique
	•	Practice first, then apply
	•	Influenced by studios we’ve spent time in across Southeast Asia, where glazing is treated as a physical, painterly process
	•	Tools and setups most people don’t have space or freedom to use at home

There may also be short, informal show-and-tell moments — things we’re currently testing ourselves, from surface processes to kiln and material experiments.

⸻

Experience level

This isn’t a beginner class, but experience levels can mix comfortably.
Some glaze approaches are accessible to newer makers; others are unfamiliar even to experienced potters. If you already work with clay and are curious, you’ll be fine.

⸻

The stay

This is a one-night studio stay at our place in Wildwood, Powell River.

We’ve hosted guests here for years and keep things relaxed and respectful. You’re welcome to treat this as focused studio time rather than a social event — quiet, solo work is completely fine.

If space allows, extra nights may be available separately.

⸻

Getting here

Powell River is a coastal town on the Sunshine Coast, north of Vancouver Island.

People arrive by:
	•	ferry
	•	or float plane (which lands about a kilometre from us — an easy walk through Wildwood)

Many guests arrive early or take a short forest walk nearby. Rain season is quieter and slower here, which suits this kind of work.

⸻

Why off-season?

Winter and early spring are calmer, more affordable, and easier to access.
This isn’t a retreat or a vacation — just time away from routine, with room to focus and make a mess on purpose.

⸻

Important notes
	•	Very limited spots
	•	Not a step-by-step workshop
	•	Summer Stay &amp; Clay workshops run separately — this is a different, simpler format
