High Desert Clay & Fire

A week of hand-building and raku firing in northern New Mexico, ending with a night burn.

๐Ÿ“ Taos, NM ๐Ÿก Venue on booking ๐ŸŒ™ 7 nights ๐Ÿ‘ฅ 12 seats ๐ŸŽค Ines Duarte
High Desert Clay & Fire

Hand-building through the first half of the week, glazing through the second, and a raku firing outdoors on the final night โ€” which is as much a party as it is a technique.

The studio is open around the clock and most people use that. Instruction is scheduled twice a day; the rest of the time you have the space, the materials and someone to ask.

Complete beginners welcome. Everything you make is fired, packed and shipped home.
