Youth Ceramics

During the 20-week session for 8 – 10 year olds, students will learn a progression of skills, making art and memories.

Classes will begin with several hand-building techniques (pinch pots, slab and coil), and then transition to learning to work on pottery wheels.

Kids learn patience and have a lot of fun while building a basic understanding about the longer process of pottery and ceramics as an art form.
