KIDS Age 7 thru 12. 4-Days. Each class will focus on techniques of making a simple pot/vessel/bowl forms. We will experiment with techniques such as pinching, coiling, and slab work in order for each student to find the method or methods they enjoy working with. Then students have the task of creating 1 or 2 final forms using the methods learned. Taught by Master Clay Artist, Emily Hiner. 4 one-hour classes. All supplies furnished. Classes are June 4th thru June 7th. Tues - Wed - Thur - Fri at 9AM to 10 AM $120
Objective: Learning that making vessels does not have to be done one way. Learning that this process can be tricky and somewhat challenging, but that is why we explore other methods and use problem solving in making their wares. Students will be provided with 3 balls of clay each. We will go over different making methods in order for them to discover what method works best for them. Then students will think up a 3D form they would want to try to make with their final clay amount.
