New Industrial Kiln – fundraising campaign
We are excited to share that we have our eye and dreams on purchasing an industrial sized kiln for the Ceramics Department. Our oldest kiln has over 900 firings on it! The larger kiln will have the capacity of about two of our current kilns and provides for easier loading. This new front loading, double door kiln will advance our firing capability significantly. The addition of the kiln will allow us to retire our oldest barrel kiln (to be used for parts) and allow for a much quicker turnaround in student creations. This is a tremendous opportunity for our community. The ballpark cost of the kiln is $40,000.
We have been offered a $10,000 donation toward the purchase of the kiln as a matching opportunity. Every dollar donated will be matched from this commitment. This is HUGE. Please consider donating toward this effort. Every $$ counts. You can click the link above to donate now, or stop in the office. Please specify in your online donation that you would like your contribution to go towards the new kiln.
Thank you for considering being a part of this exciting opportunity at FCAC. We are grateful for every contribution!
