Zoomorphic Pottery
Youth Summer Camp | Registration opens 1/22/2025 9:00 AM EST
Make your pottery come to life by giving it animal features! In this class we will be creating a large coil pot that is also a sculpture of an animal. Students will learn figurative coil building techniques as well as sculptural skills for creating wings, tails, fur, scales, and much more.
This class uses clay that needs to be fired, so artowrk will be ready in 1-2 months after class is finished.
