Join us for our Anagama Kiln Firing this spring. Led by Vernon Smith, ceramicists will start glazing and loading on Friday, April 28 at 9:00am. Firing will begin that evening and continue through Sunday afternoon. Unloading is the following Saturday, May 6.

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 in one of our Anagama firings?
Interest in our anagama firings is high, so participation is determined in advance by a lottery. The participation spots for the Spring Firing are full, but you can sign up for the Fall Firing lottery here. There is a $125 participation fee which includes up to 2000 cubic inches of space in the kiln, with a 1¢ per cubic inch fee for extra pieces, space permitting.
