With a local artist, explore printmaking as a tool for creative expression in this teen camp! Students will use Gelli plates — see more on Gelli printing here! — to create layered mono-prints, experimenting with color, texture, stencils, and mark making to design their own handmade collage papers. Throughout the week, teens will transform their prints into a finished mixed-media collage artwork while developing composition skills and personal artistic style. Perfect for artists who enjoy experimentation, layering, and creative risk-taking, no experience necessary

This class is ideal for beginners who are excited to learn the basics of wheel throwing in a low-stakes environment, and a great precursor to a multi-week course. A Studio staff member will provide a demonstration at the beginning of class and offer guidance as students practice at their own wheels. Fees cover the cost of class and clay for up to two completed pieces, including glazing and firing. Anyone ages 8 and up are welcome, but children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
Completed pieces will be fired and ready for pickup from the Clay Studio within 2 weeks after your class. We do not ship artwork, and any pieces not picked up within 60 days will be recycled.
*Note: Pieces will look different after firing. Taking photos of your piece and glaze selection after throwing and adding a signature can help identify your work when it’s time for pickup.
This eight week course will mentor 6th -9th graders in painting and drawing. Get inspired from different artists, find your own voice while developing concrete skills and techniques. This after school art class is for young artists that love drawing, want to connect with other young artists and grow their abilities in 2D art.
