Junior Spin Masters

March 22, 2026 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM (EDT)

Description

Get ready to get muddy! In this hands-on introduction to the pottery wheel, young artists will transform a ball of clay into functional treasures. This class is designed specifically for smaller hands, focusing on the tactile joy of clay while building foundational skills in a supportive, high-energy environment.

Over 6 weeks, students will learn the wonders of centering, opening, and pulling clay to create their very own bowls, cups, and whimsical sculptures. We embrace the mess and celebrate every wobble as a step toward becoming a master maker!  Thus class meets on Sunday afternoons starting March 22 and ends April 26 from 1:00-2:30pm.

What Your Child Will Learn:

  • The Basics of the Wheel: Learning how to control speed and use body leverage to "tame" the clay.
  • The 3 Core Steps: Master centering, opening, and pulling to create basic shapes.
  • Surface Design: Using stamps, rollers, and carving tools to add personality to every piece.
  • Glazing Wonders: Experimenting with vibrant colors to make their pottery decorative and shiny.

MATERIALS: Includes a 25Ib bag of clay with all glazes, and kiln firing fees.

INSTRUCTOR BIO:

Thomas shares: “I discovered the magic of the pottery wheel at age 8, and it has been a grounding force in my life ever since. My mission is to share that same sense of wonder and focus with the next generation of makers. With a Bachelor’s degree supported by extensive internships in youth and family advocacy, I bring a unique perspective to the studio. I have completed advanced training in youth outreach, family counseling, and mindfulness-based expressive arts, allowing me to foster an environment where children feel both technically challenged and emotionally supported. I believe that centering clay is a wonderful metaphor for centering oneself, and I can't wait to help your child find their 'flow' at the wheel.”
