Dear Pottery friends,

Summer planning is fun to do during these chilly winter months (they finally are chilly!), so I'm thinking of some inspiring activities for this summer.  Having the camp in the morning or afternoon this year still leaves lots of time for enjoying lazy mornings or afternoons by the pool, reading, or relaxing with family and friends.  We hope you will join one or more of our fun pottery camps.

 

As usual at The Good Earth, the emphasis will be on making it possible for the children to relax from the daily demands of the school year and to grow artistically and personally.  Summer camp times allow for more involved projects and a greater continuity of community for everyone.   At Good Earth Pottery & Garden we have eight wheels, three work tables, as well as an easy access

slabroller for boxes, dishes, animal habitats, and other types of handbuilding and sculpture.  We offer over six different clays to work with, fifteen beautiful glaze colors, and high-fire as well as low-fire options.

It is always amazing to see what the children can bring to life from their own piece of clay.

 

.All our classes are founded on personal initiative and imagination.

We offer your child the chance to develop the human capacity to imagine, work hard, and create cultural artifacts just like the Ancients did.  Your child will gain confidence while strengthening dexterity skills by spinning on the wheel, altering, turning out pieces on the slab roller, pinching and/or coiling

flights of fancy, hand-sculpting, or all of the above.

Whether they keep their creations, sell them at a house party, or give them as gifts,

 (birthdays, graduations, weddings, you are special, charity fund-raising, Valentine's Day, etc.),

they are sure to bring thoughtfulness and beauty into the world for many, many years to come.

                                   

Students are focused designing and crafting the pieces during the first weeks,

while the second weeks are filled with lots of special attention

on the finish work of adding details, decorating, and glazing.

The art students practice personal initiative skills and learn to manage

 their time and energies toward developing strong friendships and works of art.
