Grades 3-5
We’re finally able to offer what children have been asking us for years! A pottery class!
Montpelier ceramicist Alexi High, assisted by Maria, will teach children the art and craft of ceramics. We will be handbuilding bowls or pots or mugs, or we can work with children to acheive their individual dreams. Alexi is particularly skilled in using embossing and stamping techniques to give pottery depth and character. After a first firing, they’ll have the chance to use specialty glazes to truly make their pieces into one of a kind keepsakes.
Children will be able to make as many pieces as they’d like as time permits, and have the flexibility to either follow Alexi’s guidance or create their own designs. No matter which designs they choose, it will be sure to be a one-of-a-kind! Finished pottery can either be picked up in the studio after the class, or delivered to your doorstep in Montpelier.
This class will run for 7 weeks. Children can be dropped off between 3-3:30pm at Wilder Arts Studio. We will also provide a walking school bus from UES.
