Summer Camp 2026

Summer camp at Heart & Hearth is not arts and crafts. It's a working pottery studio with real wheels, a kiln, and six stools.
 

Each week is its own thing sign up for one or string a few together. They don't build on each other. Your kid can jump in wherever the theme grabs them.
 

Every week follows the same rhythm. Monday is demo day, planning and building. Wednesday is details day. They clay has firmed up and is ready for the final clay details, carving smoothing, adding on extra things, we finish up their build and add the final details. Friday, we weap up everything, and they paint them with underglaze — choosing colors, layering, learning to see their work differently when it's time to finish it. Friday wraps everything up. Three different days, three different kinds of focus.
 

All pieces are kiln-fired after camp. Expect pickup 2–3 weeks after your child's last session.
