Session 1: Throw It! Shape It! Build It! CLASS IS FULL

July 20-23, 1-4 p.m.
Teaching Artist: Elliott Newton

You’ll learn to work with clay by using the same techniques professional potters use. Start by working with slabs, coils and pinched forms, and then sit down at the potter’s wheel to throw clay into functional objects. Your instructor will give you hands-on help as you experiment, explore and create.

Session 2: Be Bold! Be Large!! CLASS IS FULL

July 27-30, 1-4 p.m.
Teaching Artist: Maria Hunt

A great workshop for teens who want to express themselves through painting and who are interested in developing the skills to make unmistakably strong and personal art. Inspired by the Colors of the West: The Paintings of Birger Sandzén, you will create large-scale paintings filled with lively and spontaneous brushwork.
