Private Kiln Firing-Full Kiln: Tryon Arts and Crafts School

Tryon Arts & Crafts School allows students to pay for private kiln firing. By participating in TACS’ normal kiln firing schedule, potters’ work will be fired and returned within a 1- to 3-week period, allowing kiln space to be shared fairly among all classes, teachers, and independent studio participants. Individuals may bypass this process by purchasing a private firing.

NOTE: TACS staff and instructors are responsible for all loading, programming, and unloading of private firings. Private firings typically happen within 1 week of purchase, and often take place on Saturdays or Sundays.

Members may purchase a Private Kiln Firing here. Our staff will contact you for scheduling. PLEASE NOTE: TACS only fires work made with clay purchased through our school. If you need clay that we do not carry, you may place an order for that clay through the office.
