For more information on the kiln, see the link:\u00a0https:\/\/uwm.edu\/waukesha-field-station\/kiln\/<\/a>). Participants have the opportunity to bring up to 4 cubic feet of bisque fired ceramic work made from cone 10 rated clay to be fired in the kiln. A selection of liner glazes will be available for students to use the week prior to loading the kiln.
