Adult Session 4 • It's Electric!: Making Oxidation Work For You • MON (July 14) • $55 • EAST

$55

with Becky Bragg

Calendar Jul 14, 2025 at 6 pm, runs for 1 week

Let’s put the boogie woogie woogie back in your surface decoration! Is everything coming out of the kiln looking muted or dull? Come learn why and how to improve your colors in oxidation in this surface decorating class. 

Groundworks will provide flat tiles for students to practice underglazing, stenciling, and applying decals on in a variety of different clay bodies that thrive in electric oxidation firing. Students can pick if they want their final pieces clear glazed or left raw, and after a few weeks, our staff will let you know when your pieces are out of the kiln and ready for pick-up.

This class takes place at Groundworks EAST 3063 Sterling Circle, Boulder, CO. 

PLEASE NOTE: This one-time class runs for 2.5 hours. You will not have access to the studio outside of the scheduled class time and all work will be completed during class time. You will also not have access to our other locations.

Your pieces will be fired in our electric kilns to Cone 6 Oxidation. Hot tip: electric kiln oxidation firing is what most people use in their home studio set-ups, so if you’re aiming to set up a home pottery business in the future, this is a great place to start!

Ages: 16+
