Another super fun Raku Mask making event with Russ! The masks will be bisque fired and ready to Raku at the Troutdale Arts Festival in June.
On May 25th, PNWS members creates masks at the May member studio tour & potluck at Russ Ford’s studio in Vancouver. Russ supplied members with clay and basic instructions for those who wish to work at home.
Troutdale Arts Festival – June 8th and 9th 11 a.m.-7p.m.
This year, PNWS will be partnering with Mt. Hood Community College to do Raku demos. Masks will be prepared ahead of the event by MHCC students and PNWS members. Raku is fun to watch but more fun if you have a “dog in the fight”! Mask makers will have their pre-fired work available to glaze for firing at the event. Volunteer at the event and see your work transformed in the process. The firing will start both days the at 11 a.m. and shut down at 5. The festival goes till 7:00 so we will need folks to volunteer to be at the booth to answer questions all day but especially at the end of the day.
