Private and Family Clay Sessions

I am excited to announce that I have been investing in my home studio in an effort to enhance the ceramics offerings for The Art Room. I purchased a kiln and a second pottery wheel so that students can come and create more clay pieces, both by handbuilding and throwing pots on the wheel. Throughout this spring, I am accepting families or small groups (2 students) for covid-safe clay classes or open studio time. During these sessions, artists can choose to use the pottery wheel, sculpt with their hands, or create art with a variety of other art forms like painting, printmaking and mixed-media. Classes can be arranged in one hour sessions by appointment only. (Note- 2 one-hour sessions are needed for clay projects to accommodate for the firing and glazing processes.) 

  • Appointments available March-May on a limited basis.
  • $30/hour each for semi-private ($60 for 2 students, $50 for siblings)
  • $40/hour for private
  • $25/hour per person for families
  • Email [email protected] with preferred dates.

ARTventurers

(5-10 year olds)

Artists imagine, create, and share their unique artistic talents with personalized projects using all kinds of art media. Each artist receives individualized art instruction and guidance on navigating the creative process. At the same time, artists practice together and support each other while trying new techniques and studying various artists and art styles. The session ends with an art show!

Check back for more information later this fall!

ART explorers

(2.5-5 year olds; parent participation is required)

These budding artists can let their imaginations go wild at various art stations highlighting different art media. Each week also features a focal artist or art style with related art skills instruction and project.

Private, Semi-Private classes and ARTSY tutoring
