Yesterday we had the Copmanthorpe U3A (Universtiy of the Third Age) visit the pottery as part of a two session raku course.
Gerry gave them a quick tour of the pottery and then they set about making a bowl which will raku fire safely and a "more risky" dragon. We shall be welcoming them back at the end of the month to fire them in our raku kiln.
However, just to be on the safe side, Gerry will make a few wheel thrown pots which will definitely raku fire safely, so that everyone will have at least one good pot to take home!
