Clay Firing Festival
With Oxford Kilns
18th - 25th July
Wytham, Oxford OX2 8QQ
we’re thrilled to announce that we’re planning a wood firing event at the Oxford University kilns this July 17th-24th. This is an incredible opportunity to fire your own work in an Anagama-style wood kiln under the expert guidance of Dr. Robin Wilson and Ekta Bagri.
These traditional Anagama kilns, located in the beautiful Wytham Woods, were built with the expertise of Japanese potters in collaboration with Dr. Robin Wilson. The name "Anagama" translates to "cave," reflecting the kiln’s ancient design based on archaeological findings. This method creates stunning, one-of-a-kind effects, naturally glazing your pots with atmospheric ash.
We’re offering two levels of experience during the week:
-
Full Experience: The Anagama kiln firing will take 5-6 days.
-
Fast Firing: For those unable to commit to the full week, a 2-3 day firing in a smaller wood kiln will also be available.
