A special project

I'm building a worldwide directory of wood kilns

Flash & Ash is a directory of wood kilns, meant to strengthen the woodfiring community by providing resources to ceramic artists, kiln owners, and educational institutions.

The project took a long pause during the pandemic, when anxiety (about everything) and lack of motivation (for anything) took hold. It's coming into motion again, though—as am I, and hopefully you, too.

Please take a look at the project and sign up for updates.
