Past & Prominent Kids Camp
Picasso was famous for his portraits, Monet for his watercolors, and Michelangelo for his frescos and sculptures. We’ll look at the work and techniques of famous artists throughout history and blend their styles with our own.
Clay for the Table Kids Camp – SOLD OUT
Kids will create the pieces for a table setting including plates, bowls, cups, and other pottery. Students will explore handbuilding techniques as well as decorative drawings to make their pottery truly unique!

Mini Artist/Clay Dough 2
Make your own air-dry clay in advance of this class with a simple recipe, then explore texture and touch as we mold something exciting.
This class will meet via Zoom.
AGES 5-6
Materials Needed:
Air dry clay: recipe, Popsicle stick, Paints, Small container of water, Paper plate,News print or other mat to work on
Air Dry Clay Recipe Options:
1 cup cornstarch
1 cup white craft glue (Elmer’s)
1 tablespoon vienegar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil.
Cook on stove on low heat for no more than 5 minutes stirring until a gooey cottage cheese consistency – turn on ventilation.. Remove from heat and when cool knead in up to 1 cup cornstarch. Place in air tight container and refrigerate up to 2 weeks.
Alternate recipe, not as malleable:
1 cup flour
2 teaspoon cream of tarter
½ cup salt
1 table spoon vegetable oil
1 cup water
Blend together dry materials, make a well in center, add water and vegetable oil. Work dry and wet ingredients together until all mixed. Use additional flour to knead dough for 5-10 minutes until consistent. Use enough flour to keep from sticking, but too much will make dough dry. I use oil on my hands to keep from sticking.
