Service Description
$325 · Ages 7–14 · M/W/F 9am–12pm · 6 kids max · All materials included · Polymer clay take-home on Friday · Ceramic pieces kiln-fired and ready for pickup 2–3 weeks after camp ends This is the week for kids who want to try the potter’s wheel for real. Three focused mornings of throwing, trimming, experimenting, and building the kind of hand memory that only comes from doing it again and again. Monday is all about centering and pulling walls—the hardest part, and the most satisfying once it starts to click. Kids will throw cylinders, collapse a few, laugh, and throw again. Wednesday, they’ll trim what they made on Monday, turning rough forms into finished bowls or cups, then get back on the wheel with a little more confidence and a lot more feel. Friday, they’ll trim their second round of pieces and finish everything with underglaze. By the end of the week, their hands will know something they didn’t know on Monday. Then they’ll make a polymer clay mini pot or tiny bowl keychain to take home that afternoon. Camp runs with a minimum of 3 enrolled students. Families will be notified in advance if minimum enrollment is not met.
