We offer children's art workshops throughout the year on weekends.  Your child's art makes an unique and original gift for family and friends.  Workshops are added to the following calendar throughout the year.  Be sure to check back for actual workshop dates and more info...

January - Clay Valentine's Day Workshops. 

I am excited to announce that I will be offering my first "Clay Valentine's Day Workshops" for children (ages 4-10) during the month of January!  There is nothing better than giving an unique gift that was made with your child's own hands.  Classes are "drop off" and last 2 hours.  Each class will begin with me reading a Valentine's Day book and then giving a lesson to the children.  Projects include: love platters and love plaques.

April - Mother's Day Workshops

There is nothing better than giving or receiving an unique gift that was made with your child's own hands.  The following clay workshops are being held during the month of April.  Workshops are "drop off" and are open to children ages 4-10.  Your child will learn clay terminology and various techniques with hand building.  More importantly, your child will have fun creating something that "they" made with their own two hands!

 

Modern Ceramic "Flower" Tumbler

April 17th 11 am – 12:30 pm (create tumbler)

April 24th 11 am - 12 pm (paint tumbler)

Cost $45

 

Each child will create a "modern" ceramic tumbler using white earthenware clay and learning different techniques of adding texture and pattern.  No two tumblers will look alike...thank goodness!  Stamped words will also be incorporated onto each tumbler.  A follow up class to glaze the fired piece is next.  Finished pieces will be dropped off at Rockabye, a children's store located in Reno. Note that the colors will vary from the ones shown in the above photos and will be mostly white with black stamped words and stitching, and with pink petals.
