Clay Creations for a Treehouse or Garden (ages 7 & up)
Potter, Heloise Besse’ (with 14 years of clay experience), will teach your child how to make ceramic pieces from raw clay using their hands, molds, found objects and clay tools. The joy of manipulating the clay by pinching, squeezing, patting, and rolling with fingers and tools to create both functional and non-functional forms will be a daily experience. The children will acquire a solid grounding in pottery fundamentals while having fun creating a variety of items. Fun and creative self-expression will be encouraged using folk tales, famous artists work and stories to inspire the children. No prior experience necessary. Projects will be fired and ready for pickup two weeks after the end of camp.
