First firing in the Big kiln

We are happy to announce that the first firing of full load for bisque temperature in the new kiln was completed successfully within 3 days. The new kiln was installed and delivered to the co-op in late December 2015, and was named ‘Big’ before launch in January 1016. Ceramics by 5 artists and People’s Pottery Classes participants were fired without a glitch.

Acquisition of a new kiln was supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
