3 day Wood Firing Experience in the heart of Mid Wales.
Our Girel 3e kiln was built in 2024, an ergonomic, economic and environmentally friendly kiln designed by Jean Girel in 2022. It uses less wood than comparable kilns and fires in much less time giving the opportunity for the experience of wood firing without a large time commitment. The kiln is designed to be energy efficient, both in terms of the wood used and the effort of stoking. Those coming on the course will be able to participate in the full firing experience.
Firing weekend courses will be Friday to Sunday.
June 20,21,22

Maximum 8 people
Café on site.
You can bring 
12 or so small to medium-sized bisque or raw stoneware pots or come on our intensive throwing course the previous weekend. It is very important that you use appropriate clay to minimise adverse effects on other pots and kiln shelves.
We provide a range of glazes that have been used successfully in this kiln. In wood firing, much of the pleasure is gained by the action of the flame on the unglazed surface of the clay body, so glazing is not always preferable.
We can’t guarantee to fire all of your pots, but we will fire as many as possible.
Optional 2 day throwing workshops
, max 5 students Saturday and Sunday before the firing
June 14,15
September 20,21
Work to be made for firing the following weekend may be bisque fired or kept raw. We provide the opportunity to use the clay bodies that have proved effective in this kiln.
£225 per person, to include clay and bisque firing if required.
Café on site.
Book both courses together for £500. Concessions available.
Full board / half board available at Mid Wales Arts.
Camper vans can be accommodated on site.
