Join Martha for a performance obvara firing on Sunday 17th
4pm (subject to change)
Obvara firing is an ancient pottery technique from the 12th century, using a raku styled firing, it's a magical process to experience. This is an alternative firing technique using fermented sourdough. Dipping very hot white ceramic pots from the kiln into the mix of sugar, flour, yeast and water gives off great scents of fresh baked bread, whilst leaving unpredictable mottled brown toast like patterns on the surface of the pots.
