A tiger, a bear, a turtle...Let's create a zoo! Using sculpting methods with Model Magic Air Dry Clay, students will explore all the ways we can make clay animals.

  • Please prepare a sturdy table where students can spread out and work. This class uses Model Magic Air Dry clay which is described in the materials list.

Christine Orr b.1993 (she/her) is an interdisciplinary artist based in Richmond, Virginia. Working in clay, fiber, paper-making and poetry, her practice critically navigates how humans have co-evolved with objects. Orr investigates material culture’s role in our understanding of domestic and utilitarian items.

Orr received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University in 2015. She completed her Master of Fine Arts from Virginia Commonwealth University in the Craft/Material Studies Department in 2021.
