***This course is ONLY for Grades K-5*

Here the studio art experience is brought to you! In ceramics, we
work with clay sculpting, making decorative art, and functional
items like useable cups and bowls. The students make and paint
their art with non-toxic colors that are then transported to a kiln,
bisque, and glaze fired with a clear food-safe finish. They are
beautiful and durable glazed ceramics. It's fun and students will
learn the fundamentals of sculpture and hand-building. Some use
of drape molds and small tools. Glass Fusing is a special activity!
Students take precut clear and colored glass, arrange a design
using clear glue gel, and set the pieces in place. They are then
transported to a kiln and fused. Some projects like tiles, hanging
glass art, necklace pendants, magnets, picture frames, and
nameplates are some examples. The teacher can cut certain
shapes for the students. Artwork comes back to the classroom
throughout the program all work received by the last class. Usually,
we finish with a self-hardening clay project they take home on the
last day.
