During the week teens will get to use the pottery wheel to throw and embellish a functional ceramic piece that will be glazed and fired in the kiln. Teens will also learn the techniques for working with paper clay, from building an armature to give the clay structure to ways to decorate their creations using paint, decoupage, or other materials. Finally, teens will explore polymer clay by making everyday objects in miniature.
NEW! Painting with Acrylics: Learn the basics of painting with acrylics! Teens will learn how to block in a composition and see it come to life as they add paint to their canvas. They will learn the fundamentals of painting, including brush techniques, how to create light and shadow, and color mixing. Teens will also learn how to handle the materials properly. Students should wear clothes that can get messy – acrylics don’t wash out of clothes!

Dive into digital! In our fully-equipped digital lab, teens will use software to explore the concept of fine art in the digital realm.
