11th Annual RAKU Day - April 21, 2011







Led by DG South visual art teacher Kathy Myles, DGS student ceramicists today embarked on the 11th annual Raku/Primitive Firing field trip. Raku pottery is created with a specific ceramic firing process that uses both fire and smoke to create unique patterns and designs. The student work that emerges from the smoke and fire of the day is visually stunning. Look for this brilliantly developed pieces during the coming Spring Art Show starting on Thursday, May 19, 2011. Way to go, DGS student ceramicists!!
