Join us for our Anagama Kiln Firing this spring. Ceramicists will start glazing and loading on Friday, April 26 at 9am. Firing will begin that evening and continue through Sunday afternoon. Unloading is the following Saturday, May 4.

Visitors are welcome to stop by and observe for free, but you must arrange your visit in advance with the Hambidge office at office@hambidge.org or 706-746-7324.

Would you like to participate as a ceramicist?
Interest in our Anagama firings is high, so participation is determined in advance by a lottery conducted approximately two months before our twice-yearly firings. Click the button below to read the requirements and join the lottery. If your name is selected, there is a $125 fee to participate in the firing.

The deadline for joining the Spring 2024 lottery is midnight, Friday, March 1, 2024. You'll be alerted whether or not you got a spot by March 8.
