Learn to sculpt with clay in this 8-week series! Sundays, January 5, 12, 19, 26, February 2, 9, 16 & March 2, from 2 p.m. - 4 p.m. The art of pottery is more than just a skill; it’s an opportunity to express our feelings and thoughts through art. Our deep connection with soil and clay fills our lives with beauty and wonder. Each piece we create tells a story about ourselves and our time. Learning how to create pottery reminds us that art is not just about making things beautiful; it’s a way to communicate with the world. This 8-week course teaches us that every piece we make is an opportunity to discover and create within ourselves. Sculptures made of clay have been created since prehistoric times and are still a form of artistic expression today. Artists and artisans around the world practice this art and create human and animal sculptures, geometric objects and shapes, and even create large works of art that tell a story. Sculpture, with a history that goes back centuries, has had a constant presence in the art and culture of different societies.
