Youth Pottery Classes in Moorestown

Emerging Potters
For Ages 9 - 13
In this class students will have the opportunity to explore and develop their own unique ideas and designs. The instructor will work closely with students as they turn ideas from sketches into three-dimensional sculpture or functional pottery; while continuing to learn and strengthen hand building and wheel throwing techniques. From ideas and goals to finished one-of-a-kind artwork, this class will help to develop confidence in the young potter. This class requires at least one previous pottery class, and the minimum age is nine years old.
