Join Mrs. Swoger for a hands-on clay camp designed to spark creativity and expose students to more of the ceramic process! This two-Saturday workshop takes place in the Prairie Ridge Elementary art room and is perfect for young artists who love to build, sculpt, and create with their hands.
On the first Saturday, students will sculpt their clay project from start to finish, learning basic hand-building techniques and creative problem-solving along the way. After firing in the kiln, students will return on the second Saturday to glaze or paint their piece, adding color and personal details.
Finished projects will be fired one final time and carefully packed up, then sent home with students approximately one week after the second workshop. Each child will leave with a one-of-a-kind ceramic artwork and a memorable creative experience.
Wear clothes for getting a little dirty and dusty!
Fee includes a large portion of clay, paint/glaze, firing, room rental, clay goodie bag, insurance, business tax, expert instruction, mess making outside of your home and a teacher who adores her students! :)
Open to all K-5 students at PRE!
