    Fire! Smoke! Drama! Instant Gratification! That's what Raku pottery is all about.  This three week course will focus on wheel and hand building raku pieces that will be fired during the last class out back in our raku kiln. Please note, Raku pottery is not food safe; these are decorative only pieces.  All materials included.
