Join North Shore potters Kristi Downing and John Franz for a 4-day raku experience utilizing the Art Colony clay studio, Kristi's Lake Superior Studio, and the North House campus on the Grand Marais Harbor. Students spend the first three days working on wheel throwing and hand-building techniques with John Franz at the Art Colony. Then Kristi leads the group to her Lake Superior studio to learn raku glazing and firing techniques. The course ends with an afternoon on the North House Folk School campus learning how to build a backyard kiln. This workshop is for all levels of clay enthusiasts.
