Bespoke Raku Day - Groups
Bespoke Raku Day - Groups
This bespoke Raku day is a carefully created day tailored to suit small groups who have some experience of Raku and would like to gain confidence with the Raku firing technique.
Minimum 3 and maximum 8 participants.
The day is from 10.30am - 4.30pm and includes a light lunch and refreshments; a selection of teas, fresh coffee and cake.
This is an exclusive opportunity to work with Catherine in her large rural studio near Penzance, Cornwall. With over 40 years experience with Raku fired ceramics, Catherine is a Master Artisan as selected by the Michelangelo Homer Faber Guide.
Bring your own small bisque fired pieces or purchase small bowls and pots to decorate on the day. (IMPORTANT: Please request these in advance).
Please note: For advanced Raku techniques such as Naked Raku/Slip Resist Raku pots must be burnished.
Pots and bowls must be made from a clay that is suitable for Raku firing and must be bisque fired in advance preferably to a low bisque temperature of 950ºc.
I offer a bisque firing service which needs to be booked at least a week in advance of the Raku day.
Learn from an expert and get support with your own Raku firings. Including lots of tips on how to get the most out of your own Raku firings once you get back home.
Once purchased contact Catherine in advance to arrange a suitable day. You are responsible for arranging local accommodation.

Spend a full day from 10am-4pm with Catherine in her large rural studio near Penzance in west Cornwall.
Bring along 8 - 10 of your own small bisque fired pieces. Try out a range of glazes and be taught how to use different masking techniques to create a gorgeous selection of Raku ceramics which you can take with you at the end of the day.
You will leave with a good grounding in the Raku process and will have an exclusive Raku Ceramics booklet to take away with you.
Catherine creates a welcoming and supportive environment in her studio with copious amounts of tea, fresh coffee and cake, with a delicious light lunch also provided.
“Catherine Lucktaylor gives a very informative and friendly course on Raku making and firing. She is a good instructor with a great knowledge of the subject and is able to make us feel both competant and creative. Catherine is a welcoming and a warm person to work with. Highly recommended.”
