Learn pottery glazing in Boulder. Dipping, brushing, and spraying techniques for beautiful ceramic surfaces.
Glazing is where your pottery comes to life with color, texture, and surface. A glaze is a mixture of minerals that melts in the kiln to form a glassy coating on your pottery. At Boulder Pottery Studio, we maintain a curated glaze library with dozens of tested recipes, from glossy celadons to matte earth tones.
Our glazing instruction covers dipping, brushing, pouring, and layering techniques. You'll learn about glaze chemistry basics, how different glazes interact when layered, and how firing temperature and atmosphere affect the final result. We also have raw materials available for members who want to mix and test their own glazes.
At Boulder Pottery Studio, we teach pottery glazing as part of our comprehensive pottery curriculum. Whether you're exploring this technique for the first time or deepening an existing practice, our instructors will guide you through the fundamentals and help you develop your skills.
All materials are included in our class fees — clay, glazes, kiln firing, and tools. Our studio is equipped with both gas and electric kilns, giving you access to firing options that most pottery studios in Boulder can't offer.
