Kids Clay & Art Class (Winter 2022 Semester)

About this Class

Our nurturing teachers, who specialize in sparking a passion for creative expression in children, know how to make our classes special by creating an atmosphere of learning, fun & friendship. Focusing on hand-building and sculpture, painting pottery, mosaic techniques and canvas painting, students will craft  bowls, plates, cups, vases as well as amazing sea creatures, animals and more creative fun.  Students are taught the fundamentals of slab, pinching, and coil techniques.

Your child will glaze work throughout the semester, but due to the firing process, some pottery will not be ready to paint by the last class. If your child misses a class and/or will not be able to paint all of their pottery pieces, we will pack the unpainted pottery for you to pick up and your child can paint at a later date for $10.  There will be no make up classes, refunds or credits due to missed classes. 

We will call or email to notify you when all of your child’s work is bagged and ready for pickup (typically 2-3 weeks after the last class). If pottery is not picked up within 30 days of notification, we will donate your child’s pottery, due to lack of space.

We offer school pick up at select schools at school dismissal. Register for school pick up with your after school program registration.
