Craft Summer Program

Introduction

Come join us for our Kids Summer Craft Program!

Summer Program 2B:
This week will have sessions of Clay and Fiber Arts.

We will host four creative, fun filled days offering students the opportunity to learn clay handbuilding and working on the pottery wheel.
Through fun, imaginative projects that are designed to foster creativity and problem-solving, students will learn how to center, cone, trim, slab build, glaze and prepare pieces for final firings. Our instructors are knowledgeable and cultivate a lively, light-hearted, and positive classroom atmosphere.

Students will also experiment with a variety of fibers arts~ learning about dyes, felting, spinning, tapestry weaving and more! Students will create their very own loom to weave on and learn about preparing wool for spinning and felting.

Ages (10-13). Students who will turn 10 by June 1st, 2022 are welcome to sign-up.

Campers should bring snacks, lunch, and a water bottle for camp. They should also wear a hat and come with sun block.

Please note this camp takes place Tuesday July 5-Friday July 8.

Bradie Hansen is a fiber crafter, artist, author and psychologist. She was raised in northern New Jersey and Southwest Florida, and came to Vermont in 1996 to go to graduate school at St. Michael’s College. Vermont became her home after that. Always having some knitting project going, in 2011/2012, she started crocheting, then spinning wool, and then weaving. She’s taught fiber art classes at the Shelburne Community School and is passionate about making fiber art accessible to all people. She is excited to work with students on all things wild and wooly and textured on handlooms, rigid heddle looms, circular looms and anything else that provides support to a warp. A student of Lausanne Allen’s, Bradie loves floor loom weaving, too, and will be around to help students with their projects. Bradie’s current work is both on her floor loom and on “found” looms, like those made out of driftwood and one made out of a wooden door pane. Bridging her loves of psychology and handcrafting, Bradie is compiling a series of tapestry weavings and other handwork pictures that will become a shawl depicting “golden moments” in her life, a project part of her Weaving a Life © journey. She is also the co-author of The Long Grief Journey which is about long-term and unresolved grief.

Elisheva joined the SCS community during the summer of 2019 as a resident artist and summer camp teacher. She returned the following summer in 2020 for a second residency where she helped with COVID-19 response projects and teaching kids' classes through the Fall. For her third return in 2022, Elisheva teaches kids summer craft. While away from the Craft School, Elisheva makes her own pottery in Providence, Rhode Island where she received her BA in Art History and Judaic Studies from Brown University.
