Merry Christmas! And a Happy New Year for 2024!
|
As the year draws to a close, I'm thrilled to share some exciting news with you all! The Fire Gallery is gearing up for a significant transformation. This December, we're embarking on a new journey as we move to a larger space!
|
Our current studio has been a cradle of inspiration and learning, and while we'll cherish every moment spent here, it's time for us to expand our horizons. The new space, which we'll be moving into during the last week of December, promises not just more room, but an array of new possibilities.
The new address will be 1520 Silver St, Houston TX 77007
|
Stay tuned for more updates, and get ready to roll up your sleeves in our new, inspiring space come January!

Crystal Glaze Making Event #2
|
|
Thursday, December 14, 2023
|
|
Back by request, we will be hosting another Crystal Glaze-making event.
|
Trey will guide participants through the intricate process of creating a crystal glaze, building upon the foundation laid in our previous session. Attendees will have the chance to experiment with various colorants and additions, giving each artist the freedom to personalize their glaze and create something truly unique.
|
As part of this event, participants are invited to gain invaluable experience in kiln loading for crystal firing. This is a crucial step in ensuring the success of your pottery pieces.
|
Be sure to bring a Mask/Respirator for your safety
|
|
Remember, the beauty of crystal glazes lies in their unpredictability and the stunning patterns they create.
