Join us for Raku-Fest! Raku-Fest showcases a unique ceramic firing process in which red-hot ceramic pieces are transferred directly from the kiln into a container of combustible materials. The heat of the ceramic causes the materials to ignite, and the resulting smoke creates one-of-a-kind effects in the ceramic glaze.

Attend the Event—advance registration required
A limited capacity audience can watch the action live as multiple raku firings take place throughout the day. Admission is available for either morning (10 AM–12:30 PM) or afternoon (1­–3:30 PM) on both days. Attendees may arrive any time during their time window. Walk-ins the day of the event will be available only if capacity allows.
