Ceramics with the UWF Department of Art & Design

June 22, 2026

Camp Description

In this playful, hands-on ceramics camp, elementary students will explore clay through the creation of pinch pot bowl animals that combine simple functional forms with imaginative sculptural details. Students will learn basic hand-building techniques by shaping bowls and transforming them into animals using texture, pattern, and expressive features. Finished works will be kiln fired, glazed, and fired again, introducing students to the full ceramic process from soft clay to finished artwork. The camp emphasizes creativity, fine motor skills, and joyful experimentation while teaching respect for materials and tools.

Registration Opens March 4
