Clay Workshop (Grades 2-6) Tuesdays

In this hands-on class, students will explore the fascinating world of ceramics by learning essential hand-building techniques to create their own pots, cups, plates, vases, and more. Beginning with a simple slab of wet clay, students will transform their materials into imaginative and functional art pieces. At the end of the semester, students will have the exciting opportunity to showcase their masterpieces in the Hawk's Nest Art Gallery.

Our Clay Workshop goes beyond teaching basic art skills; it fosters critical thinking, fine motor skills, and spatial awareness. By engaging in the artistic process, students enhance their problem-solving abilities and develop a keen eye for detail. The collaborative environment encourages teamwork and communication, while the individualized projects allow personal expression and creativity. Displaying their work in the gallery instills a sense of pride and accomplishment, boosting self-esteem and confidence. This enriching experience nurtures budding artists and contributes to their overall growth, making it a valuable addition to their educational enrichment journey.
