Summer Mini-Camps
Summer Clay Studio 1 (Mixed Ages)
July 22-25 (This week is FULL)
There’s nothing like the feeling of cool, squishy clay on a warm summer day! Clay is a wonderful expressive medium and is ideal for enhancing children’s development on many levels. Students will chose from a variety of project ideas while learning the basics of coil, pinch, and slab construction, as well as different surface decoration techniques. All pieces will be kiln fired and glazed. (Mixed ages)
Summer Clay Studio 2 (Older Kids 9-13)
July 29 – Aug 1 (This week is FULL)
Get ready to get your hands messy and your creativity flowing! This week is designed for older kids who are ready to take their ideas to the next level. We’ll dive into fun and flexible techniques like coil, pinch and slab construction, and challenge ourselves with more complex, creative projects that allow for plenty of artistic self expression. Everything gets glazed and kiln fired for a finished, lasting result! (9-13yrs)
