Handbuilding Camps:  For ages 5 and up, 9:30 am to 12:30 pm​

Children explore different clay techniques and create fun and unique projects. Pinch, coil and slab techniques taught and used to make a different project each day. Children paint their projects using underglazes. ​​​

Please note, there is a possibility your child may have already made a project that is scheduled for the day. All projects can be modified and decorated differently.​

Wheelthrowing Camps: For ages 10 and up, 9:30 am to 12:30 pm

Campers work on the potter wheel to learn the different steps needed to make wheel thrown pieces. Glaze colors are selected by the campers and glazing is done by the instructors. At this time, we only have Wheelthrowing Camp scheduled for the 4 day week of June 29th.

​
