Clay Discovery Wednesdays

A creative handbuilding class for kids ages 7–12, 5:00pm to 6:00pm

150 US dollars

Service Description

Clay Discovery is a hands-on class where kids get to slow down, work with their hands, and explore clay in a calm, welcoming studio. We focus on handbuilding techniques like coiling, slab building, and sculpting, helping kids turn their ideas into real pieces they’re excited to bring home. Each class blends gentle instruction with plenty of room for creativity. Some weeks kids make functional pieces like bowls or cups, other weeks they sculpt, experiment with texture, or follow their own ideas. Along the way, they build confidence, problem-solving skills, and a real sense of pride in what they create. This class is a great fit for kids who are brand new to clay and for those who already have some experience and want to keep building. The studio atmosphere is supportive, patient, and playful. Kids are encouraged to explore at their own pace and enjoy the process. Once you join a Clay Discovery class, the space is your child's to keep. Students are automatically enrolled in each subsequent four-week session, so they can continue building their practice without having to re-register each time. Enrollment is billed every four weeks. When you're ready to take a break, simply email us at studio@artsybeast.com to pause your enrollment. We love seeing what happens when students have the time and consistency to develop their craft — and we're happy to have your child with us for as long as you'd like to keep creating. The age range for this class is 7 to 12 years old. And because we want our studio to remain a beautiful, functional space for everyone, ceramic pieces not picked up within three months will be considered a donation to the studio.
