Introduction

Does your child like to play and build with clay? Join us in our clay studios where we have been teaching the joy and art of ceramics for over 70 years. In this course, students will get a firm foundation in working with clay both on the wheel and in hand-building. Our guided demonstrations and projects are designed to foster curiosity and to explore a hands on understanding of sculpting with clay through helping students to think and make creative decisions for themselves. Ideal for students ages 10-14, this course can be taken again and again. Looking to round out your child’s hands on education in making, check out our wood 001 where students explore building objects in our historic woodshop.
