ERA’s annual ceramic Pit Fire is to celebrate the end of Homecoming week. The pit fire is intended for ceramic pieces made by ERA students. The pit is loaded with ceramics works and smothered with combustibles that we heat in a fire to obtain interesting markings. Flames of the fire magically weave their way around the pots to create different colors and effects. The surfaces can be thought of as paintings created by fire and smoke. Staff and students are encouraged to come outside to see the lighting. The Art Department and a handful of juniors and seniors see to the loading of a circular “pit” with a brick wall, in the parking lot by door 5.
