Introduction to Paper Kilns: Building and Firing at Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery
September 15 & 22, 2012
Building and firing a paper kiln is an exciting and dynamic
alternative to other smoke and woodfire ceramic techniques. Lead by
ceramic artists Becky Webster and Natalie Prevost-Mero, this two-day workshop designed for people with some ceramics experience. The firing at dusk will be open to all!
September 15th – 1:00 to 6:00pm
September 22nd – 6:00 to 10:00pm
On day one, potters will bring two or three bone dry small pots and
apply terra sigillata to the surfaces. The same afternoon the course
participants will also build the paper kiln using an armature, wood,
newspaper and clay slip. Pots will be bisque fired between sessions. On
day two participants will decorate pots with colour enhancing materials.
The kiln will then be loaded with the participants’ pots and will be
fired at dusk. The colour enhancing materials will create unique fire
surface.

Blogging Your Way!
BYW Boot Camp is NOW ENROLLING and will run from October 5 – November
2, 2012! This exciting idea-packed class is for both Blogging Your Way
and BYW 2.0 students. It’s loaded with blogging inspiration, interviews,
ideas and both new and updated materials so you can build on what
you’ve learned in previous classes. Learn more about the BYW BOOT CAMP here.

(for intermediate to advanced) and Blogging Your Way Boot Camp (NEW!
For all bloggers big and small!) bring a creative, personal approach to

your own for free. Our e-courses guide you as you begin to get
in touch with why you want to blog, what your intentions are, how you
should approach online networking and community building, what makes a
blog a “success” and shows you how to use your blog as a catalyst to
create your best life. In fact, using your blog as a catalyst to live
your best life is at the very core of what we teach.
Our online courses are packed with hundreds of
helpful tips, feedback, visuals, inspiration and ideas that will guide
you on your blogging journey. These self-paced password protected
e-courses and forums venture beyond the boring basics. You will learn
from the pros in a supportive environment amongst friends with plenty of
opportunity to meet and network without feeling overwhelmed or
overlooked.
