Saturday: Sculpture Fundamentals [Ages 8-12]

Learn the fundamentals of working with clay, as well as how to use clay modeling tools, cutters, scrapers, and more. Students will sketch designs and consider colors as they learn to plan and then execute both whimsical and thoughtful sculptures. A great class for increasing fine motor skills, visual perception and idea generation!
