Artful Adventures: Clay Creations

Description

About this Class: In this hands-on workshop, young artists will explore the tactile experience of working with clay. Through a variety of exercises, children will learn to connect with the material, develop their dexterity, and create unique three-dimensional forms, benefiting from the healing power of clay. About Artful Adventures: Instructor Gilda will lead a weekly class through creative activities producing works in watercolor, clay, paint, and nature crafts. This is an opportunity for young budding artists to experiment and learn new skills, all while gaining the benefits of groundedness through touch, learning focusing tools, 3-dimensional form and dexterity practice, and expressing abstract feelings through color. Students will walk away with new found art skills, all while gaining a better connection to themselves and the world around them. Recommended ages 7-13.
