Get creative with clay in this fun, hands-on pottery class designed especially for students in grades 3–5! Over six weeks, young artists will explore the exciting world of ceramics using hand-building techniques—no pottery wheel required.
Students will learn foundational clay skills such as pinching, coiling, and slab building while creating a variety of unique projects. From imaginative sculptures to functional pieces like bowls, cups, and decorative items, each week encourages creativity, experimentation, and personal expression.
Throughout the class, kids will:
-
Learn basic hand-building pottery techniques
-
Develop creative problem-solving and design skills
-
Explore texture, pattern, and surface decoration
-
Paint and glaze their finished pieces
-
Build confidence through hands-on artistic exploration
All projects will be kiln-fired and ready to take home after completion. By the end of the six-week session, students will have a collection of handmade ceramic pieces and a strong foundation in working with clay.
No prior experience is needed—just bring curiosity and a willingness to get a little messy! 🎨👐
