Last Workshop for the 2011-2012 School Year

Yes, that’s right.  Monday, Nov 7, 2011, will be the last workshop for the school year.  If you have yet to attend a workshop, this will be your last chance to get trained on the sculpting and glazing techniques.  If you have already attended one of the previous workshops, we’ll have your clay pieces ready for you to glaze.  Also you can pick up any finished pieces that you have glazed in the previous workshops.

So come out and join us for some fun with clay.  Clay Docent is a great opportunity for you to get involved with your child’s class.  No experience is necessary.

We look forward to seeing you in the Science Lab on Monday, Nov 7, 2011 from 8:00 to 11:30 am. 

Clay Docent Program is in Full Swing

The first batch of glazed pieces have been fired.  The kids did a fantastic job making and glazing their pieces.  The kiln was full of fishes, snowmen and oval handprints.  The new glaze colors that we picked up this summer look great.  See for yourself...

Clay Docent Workshop Oct 10th

Just a reminder that our second Clay Docent Workshop is on Monday, Oct 10, 2011 from 8:00am-11:30am.  We'll be in the Science Lab.

During this workshop we'll be covering glazing techniques.  We'll also cover the 3 sculpting techniques (slab, pinch and coil) if you missed the first workshop.

All that pieces that were made at the first workshop have been fired and are ready to be glazed.  If you were unable to attend the first workshop, you'll have the opportunity to make any of the pieces that you need to.  

We look forward to seeing you on the 10th.
