5 DAY PROGRAM
Pottery Summer camp 2026
5 x 3 Hour Sessions | Runs 9:00am - 12:00pm, Monday-Friday, August 3 - 7 | For ages 9-14 | $160+ GST
Class Overview
This Summer Break, young makers are invited to spend their days in the ceramics studio exploring clay through both wheel throwing and handbuilding. Designed for kids aged 9–14, this multi-day pottery program introduces foundational ceramic skills while leaving plenty of room for creativity, experimentation, and fun.
Participants will learn how to shape clay on the wheel, build forms by hand, and turn their ideas into finished ceramic pieces they can be proud of. No prior experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to get a little messy.
This program is generously supported by the Audain Foundation, providing heavily subsidized general admission. In addition, there are 2 accessible spots available at a reduced price of $80.
If you feel your child qualifies for one of these spots, use code AccessibleSummerPottery26 at checkout to receive the reduced price.
