Artists in Clay II
Many kids enjoy making with clay — but glazing is where pieces truly come to life.
This 6-session program focuses on color, surface, and artistic expression. All ceramic forms are pre-made and prepared by CIRCA, allowing students to fully concentrate on glazing techniques and creative exploration.
Each session introduces a new artist through a short, engaging story. Students explore how the artist used color, pattern, and emotion in their work, then apply those ideas directly onto their own ceramic piece.
With two sessions per week, students stay connected to the process and build confidence quickly. This rhythm allows for deeper exploration while keeping the experience engaging and dynamic.
Across the program, students complete six individual works, each inspired by a different artist.
Artists We Explore
Yayoi Kusama – repetition, dots
Pablo Picasso – abstract faces, line
Frida Kahlo – storytelling, symbolism
Vincent van Gogh – movement, texture
Andy Warhol – bold color, repetition
