Sculpt and Shape
Unleash your creativity this summer! Kids will learn the basics of pottery and clay crafting in a hands-on, supportive environment. From shaping clay on the pottery wheel to hand-building unique sculptures, each child will create their own masterpieces to take home.
Our experienced instructor will guide students through various techniques, including molding, glazing, and painting, while fostering creativity and confidence. Perfect for young artists, this class promises to be messy, educational, and loads of fun!
