Class Description
Students are invited to join and explore the numerous possibilities clay has to offer, such as hand-building, sculpting, tile/mosaic making, decorating, and glazing. Hand-building is a great technique for beginners to advanced students. With hand-building, all you need is your hands and clay. The teacher will take you step by step using the basic three methods of hand-building (pinch pots, slabs and coils) to create handmade mugs, plates, vases, and more!
Crafting is great for mental wellbeing, as it allows you to reconnect with yourself and learn something new. If you are looking for ways to create or try new mediums, try this Hand-building class. Shape, join, form, and glaze clay into a unique and beautiful piece of functional art.

As an artist and a pottery instructor, my work and classes are an expression of my own path towards treating myself and others with gentleness and patience as we create, play and learn. I make pottery to be held and used every day. For me, the practice of pottery is about the feel of the clay in my hands and allowing my mind and body to slow down. With each piece I pass on that sensory connection in its shape, balance and smoothness to touch.
I create in small series, with a whimsical curiosity to experiment and play with soft curves, carved designs and glazes.

Instructor's reviews
My daughter actually switched to the other section of this class... 3rd-5th Grade, so I don't want to give this teacher a bad review but she had started in this section (K-2), so that's the review I was sent.
Overall, I found this class to be very disappointing. It was listed as a class taught by a Disney Princess and the class ended up having 3 different teachers during the course. This was confusing for the students and didn't offer any cohesiveness. The teachers couldn't even remember the kids names. At the end of the semester, very few songs or dances were actually taught and the kids mostly played games during the hours of the class. The class isn't inexpensive, so for this, I wouldn't gone somewhere else to give my daughter a better experience and have her learn something.

Harry Potter Camp was so much fun! My girls loved making wands and creating potions...and thinking of mischievous ways to stir trouble at Hogwarts! The creative programming was wonderful for this outdoor day camp and kept my girls busy and having a great time. Their only request was that the day lasted longer! They came home and continued creating ideas to keep the magic going. Thank you!

I feel that this course is not tailored for K-1 grade. K-1 graders need more moving around, especially after a long day at school, then was made possible by the instructor.
