The president of our ceramics guild in Grand Junction, CO has asked me to
post the following announcement. Further information is available at the
guild's website: http://gjcag.com/
I did not attend the last Randy Broadnax workshop, but people who did tell
me it was a good investment of time and money.
Bonnie Hellman
The Grand Junction Ceramic Arts Guild is hosting a participatory workshop
with Randy Broadnax and Don Ellis at a member's studio located 20 miles west
of Grand Junction, CO. This will be a 5-day event starting on Thursday,
September 4th and concluding on Monday, September 8th. The cost is $300 for
members and $350 for non-members. There will also be room for 3 to 5
observers at $200. There are a few places still open. I will need 1/2
payment to hold your place, with the balance due by August 1st. We will
have room for about 15 wheel throwers, as well as the 3 to 5 observers. The
down payment of 1/2 is not refundable. You also need to bring your own
wheel, or make arrangements in advance.
Please send checks payable to: JCAG
and sent to: 635 Brooks Court Grand Junction CO 81504
Here is a general synopsis of what the workshop is expected to include.
Participants will:
-Increase their throwing skills by up to 100% with techniques that Randy
and Don will teach
-Learn how to do low-salt firing
-Learn how to do high-salt firing
-The formulae and use of cone 6 lichen glazes
-The formulae for cone 6 oxidation glazes that look like cone 10
reduction glazes
-The use of colored engobes
-The use of commercial glazes
-How to do copper matte firing
-How to do copper flashing firing
-How to employ alternative throwing techniques
-Good Food -Making art takes a lot of energy. At the 2004 workshop,
Randy fed the masses with a genuine Cajun Jambalaya and promises to do the
same this year. Also, workshop participants will pool their resources to
make sure no one goes hungry.

Don't miss this!! If you can possibly get there. Randy and Don are the best
comedy routine I have seen in ages. And no-nonsense potters.
