Firing Services
Fees vary from $20-$100 depending on the space required. Fees for a full earthenware bisque or glaze firing is $75. Fees for a stoneware bisque or glaze firing is $100. This includes loading, attending, and unloading the kiln. While 99% of our firings end in success, Cielo Clayworks cannot guarantee or take responsibility for the outcome of work created outside of the studio. Kiln services are by appointment only and booked on availability.

Everyone is welcome! If you are not familiar with ceramic techniques, we’ll start at the beginning whether learning to handbuild or throw on the wheel. Both classes also include glazing instructions for wares made in class. Coming to a Create-A-Plate or Paint-A-Stein session? You will be guided every step of the way. We always instruct to your level of experience.

We also offer instruction for special needs students.
