Ceramics

Explore and create traditional and experimental pottery, stoneware, and earthenware under the guidance of an experienced art educator and professional ceramicist. While focusing on hand-building and throwing on the potter's wheel, students study ceramic design, sculpture, and glaze technology. 

Ceramics students spend their days in open-air studios engaging in a combination of direct instruction, studio work time, collaboration with other young artists, and sharing and reflecting on their work. At the end of their session, students have the opportunity to celebrate their work by participating in Open Studios day, or a celebration with their class in-studio. All levels are welcome. 

For students who are particularly motivated to get full exposure to this unique art-making process, we recommend the 8-week session.
