Fire&Earth offers the Charleston area's most comprehensive clay program. We fire our pots in a gas kiln, to cone 10 (2350
F). This high-fire makes your pots suitable for use, dishwasher and microwave safe! And the gas firing gives the glazes a look that
electric kilns can't match.
The Group classes at Fire&Earth are fun and challenging. They are well suited for
complete beginners, or for people with some throwing skill. A variety of projects are covered in each session. If your skill level
is quite high, I can create projects that will suit your particular needs. Classes tend to fill one month in advance of the start
date, so registering early is wise. Contact me via E-mail or call me at (843) 766-2776 with questions or to register for a class.
