  • CERAMIC GLAZE WORKSHOP 112 HAMPTON

    Ceramic Glaze Workshop

    A hands-on deep dive into glaze theory, formulation, testing, and experimentation.

    Over two sessions, explore the chemistry and creative possibilities of ceramic glazes through a combination of theory and hands-on lab work. Working individually and in groups, you’ll formulate and test four base glazes: a stable high-gloss clear, a stable matte clear, a crackling/crazing glaze, and a crawling or “molten island” glaze.

    You’ll also experiment with colourants, learn practical strategies for glaze testing and iteration, and develop effective methods for recording and evaluating your results. The workshop concludes with a review of the group’s test results and discoveries.

    The workshop is limited to 10 students and will be led jointly by Noël Yardley and Evan.
