Instructor: Megan Steinman

Dates; Multiple Sessions Available

Tuesdays and Thursday are now open to 6 to 13 year olds

(Previously these days were age specific!)

Time: 4:30-6:30

These classes are offered as a way to have fun and adventure into art after school has let out for the day! At each session there will be multiple examples avalible for the students to choose from, though there will be some kind of theme each week that the examples will relate to.  This can be as simple as "pinch pots" where the items shown are all pinch pots, or it could be like a "dish" which could be from a slab, made using pinch pot methods or other methods! 

The goal of these classes is to introduce different techniques for Hand-building in ceramics or to better skills a student may already have. In addition to this to have fun with the medium of clay, using new and different tools to explore all it has to offer.
