raku work by Taylor Nalley

Raku Firing Sessions

By

Sessions meet the 4th Sunday of each month | 9:45am-3:45pm, hour-and-a-half increments

For students interested in a reduction firing technique, Raku Firing Sessions allow first hand experience in loading raku kilns, controlling atmosphere and transporting pieces to a reduction chamber! Students will be briefed with a small lecture on the history of raku and its westernization, then guided throughout each part of the process leading to post-reduction. Join us and watch your work transform into a beautiful multi-colored finished piece right in front of you!

Student Spotlight: Kamryx Davis Continues Learning Artistically

By News

Kamryx Davis, an Interdisciplinary Studies student at Valdosta State University, has been exploring various artistic fields since childhood.

Davis has been a guitar student at the Turner Center for the Arts for nearly a year, taking classes through The Hal & Jill Project: Beginning Guitar Lessons. When asked why she decided to learn guitar, Davis said, “Guitar is my instrument of choice because I want to play an instrument that doesn’t require me to blow on it to produce sound – and I was inspired by the many cool guitar riffs I’ve heard.”
