WEEKEND WORKSHOPS

Weekend workshops will be an opportunity to gather in community, try out a new technique in ceramics and have some fun. I’m talking wheel throwing demos, glaze parties, pit fires, guest teachers, community collaborations and more. If you are a local maker with an idea for a collaborative workshop don’t hesitate to reach out! 

KILN RENTALS

Already have a studio set up but nowhere to fire your work? Bring your pieces here! Ypsi Clay House has one bisque kiln (7.5 cubic ft.) and one glaze kiln (5.5 cubic ft.) Bisque kilns will be fired to cone 04 and glaze kilns will be fired to cone 6. If you’d like to fire to a different temperature you will have the option of renting an entire kiln. For the safety of the space and the health of the kilns, prior to renting a kiln, all clays and glazes must be pre approved.

OPEN STUDIO

Want more clay time? Ypsi Clay House will have limited open studio hours available through a work exchange program. Help with the behind-the-scenes, and get more time at the wheel. Stay tuned for more info!
