Clay Creations: Enchanted Garden Art
Come squish, shape, roll, and squeeze clay into art for your backyard or garden! Using basic hand-building techniques including pinch, coil, and slab, we will learn to make flower pots, bells, birdhouses, windchimes,and garden sculptures. We will add surface decorations through stamping and printing, and will learn to finish our pieces by underglaze painting. We’ll look to the natural world and contemporary clay artists for inspiration. Whether you’re a beginner or have some clay experience, this camp is perfect for anyone who loves art, nature, and making something truly magical!
Artists in WonderCamp is an art program designed to introduce elementary and middle school students to contemporary art through inquiry-based learning, open-ended discussions, hands-on studio art experiences, and interactions with professional artists. Students explore meaningful ideas and processes that help them investigate the world around them through the elements of art while, most importantly, having lots of fun. Different themes and media are explored with an emphasis on the process over the final product to allow creativity to flow freely. We'll begin each day with mindful body movement.
