Description: Kids love to play in the mud! In this class, they will learn how to wedge and center their clay on the wheel and then proceed to the fun and messy throwing process of creating cylinders, cups, bowls and possibly plates, depending on progress during class. Students will also learn to trim their pots on the wheel when the clay has stiffened to “leather hard” stage. They will then decorate and glaze their work over the course of several weeks. All pieces will be fired to 2150 degrees Fahrenheit for functional use in the home and kitchen.
Children can take bus Route 10 West and can get off at Wagner Rents at 3:59pm directly across the street from Warehome Studios for convenient drop off.
