SUMMARY:The Raku Experience - two hours of drama\, colour\, fire and fun
DESCRIPTION:An unforgettable\, fiery adventure in ceramics \nGet ready for two hours of drama\, colour\, fire and fun with our brand-new Raku Experience — a hands-on pottery session that puts you right at the heart of this thrilling and unpredictable firing technique. \nWhat’s Involved? \nYou’ll begin by selecting a beautiful\, premade pot created by one of our skilled potters. Then it’s over to you to decorate it using special Raku glazes — metallic\, crackled\, and unpredictable in all the best ways. \nOnce your piece is ready\, the real magic begins. You’ll help load the raku kiln and feel the roar of the flames as your pot is heated to over 1000°C in just 35 minutes. While the heat works its alchemy\, grab a coffee from our on-site café or chat with our friendly Raku expert\, who’ll explain the secrets behind the process. \nFire\, Smoke and Steam \nWith the kiln blazing hot\, the pots are carefully lifted out — red-hot and glowing — and placed into small bins. Here’s where you take centre stage again: add newspaper and watch your pot erupt into flames. Once the fire is dancing\, pop on the lid and stand back as the pots begin to smoke! \nAfter 10 smoky\, magical minutes\, the pots are pulled from their bins and plunged into cold water — a spectacular finale of hissing steam and crackling heat. \nThe Big Reveal \nFinally\, if your pot has braved the flame\, smoke and water\, you’ll scrub away the soot to reveal the incredible\, unique colours and textures that only Raku can deliver. No two pots are ever the same. \nWho’s It For? \nThis experience is perfect for adults and teens\, whether you’re a total beginner\, a seasoned maker looking for something new\, or just someone who loves a bit of controlled chaos and creativity. \n£90.00 per person includes all materials and pot

SUMMARY:The Raku Experience – two hours of drama\, colour\, fire and fun
DESCRIPTION:An unforgettable\, fiery adventure in ceramics \nGet ready for two hours of drama\, colour\, fire and fun with our brand-new Raku Experience — a hands-on pottery session that puts you right at the heart of this thrilling and unpredictable firing technique. \nWhat’s Involved? \nYou’ll begin by selecting a beautiful\, premade pot created by one of our skilled potters. Then it’s over to you to decorate it using special Raku glazes — metallic\, crackled\, and unpredictable in all the best ways. \nOnce your piece is ready\, the real magic begins. You’ll help load the raku kiln and feel the roar of the flames as your pot is heated to over 1000°C in just 35 minutes. While the heat works its alchemy\, grab a coffee from our on-site café or chat with our friendly Raku expert\, who’ll explain the secrets behind the process. \nFire\, Smoke and Steam \nWith the kiln blazing hot\, the pots are carefully lifted out — red-hot and glowing — and placed into small bins. Here’s where you take centre stage again: add newspaper and watch your pot erupt into flames. Once the fire is dancing\, pop on the lid and stand back as the pots begin to smoke! \nAfter 10 smoky\, magical minutes\, the pots are pulled from their bins and plunged into cold water — a spectacular finale of hissing steam and crackling heat. \nThe Big Reveal \nFinally\, if your pot has braved the flame\, smoke and water\, you’ll scrub away the soot to reveal the incredible\, unique colours and textures that only Raku can deliver. No two pots are ever the same. \nWho’s It For? \nThis experience is perfect for adults and teens\, whether you’re a total beginner\, a seasoned maker looking for something new\, or just someone who loves a bit of controlled chaos and creativity. \n£90.00 per person includes all materials and pot

SUMMARY:Sharon Lea Lecture Demonstration - Throwing with Porcelain
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Lea: Live Lecture Demonstrations at Cheshire Clay Studios \nWe’re thrilled to welcome acclaimed potter Sharon Lea to Cheshire Clay Studios this autumn for exclusive live lecture demonstrations. These inspiring sessions will dive into the techniques\, challenges\, and artistry behind two of pottery’s most complex forms: throwing with porcelain and making the perfect teapot. \n About Sharon Lea \nBorn in Britain and raised in the wild landscapes of New Zealand’s South Island\, Sharon Lea creates ceramics rooted in nature. Her early exposure to wind-shaped rock\, water-worn surfaces\, and a background in botany fostered a lasting fascination with organic forms. Today\, that connection continues to flow through her practice. \nSharon studied at Clay College in Stoke\, where she is now a tutor. Her work is known for its expressive throwing lines\, fluid shapes\, and thoughtful use of natural materials—many sourced from her family’s own farm. From hand-built vessels to delicately thrown porcelain\, her pieces explore the balance between spontaneity and control\, form and function. \n Upcoming Lecture Demonstration \nThrowing with Porcelain \nSaturday 13th September | 2–4pm | £20 per person \nPorcelain is loved for its luminous beauty—and dreaded for its fickle nature. In this demo\, Sharon will share her techniques for working confidently with this elegant yet challenging material. Whether you’ve struggled with porcelain in the past or simply want to watch a master at work\, this is one not to miss. \nJoin Us \nThis event is open to ceramicists\, pottery enthusiasts\, and curious makers looking to deepen their understanding of form and technique. Whether you’re refining your own practice or just love watching skilled hands at the wheel\, Sharon’s demonstrations promise to inform and inspire. \nSpaces are limited—early booking is highly recommended.
