The
“Julia” Soda Firing Club is designed for folks looking for longterm use
with our Soda Kiln, Julia. The club is led by Studio Monitors, and a
Studio Technician but involves no formal instruction in soda firing
processes. Without a formalized instructor, our Soda Club offers a more
financially accessible way of having work soda-fired, without the need
to retake our Intro to Soda Firing workshop courses. The Soda Club will
run firings monthly or as often as desired and needed depending on
participant interest. Unlike our Soda Firing Workshops, club firings
will include no instruction on wadding, slips, glazes, or any lectures
on the subject of soda firing. As such, participants must feel
comfortable with the safety and care of the equipment, as well as
loading, firing, and maintenance procedures surrounding the firing
process.
Each participant gets 1 cubic foot of firing space.
(Tip; Make sure all your pots fit approximately into a milk crate which is 1 cubic foot of space).
This firing will be chosen by the group to be either oxidation or reduction, and fired to cone 6 with sprayed soda at the end.
