Afterschool Pottery with Ona
What are your kiddos doing after school this Spring? Are they wild, unhinged muddy monsters once they get home? Are they glued to a tablet when they hit the carpool lane?
Sounds like Firefly Valley’s Pottery Class here on the farm by artist Ona is what they need- let’s play in the mud, be outside AND get centered! This class is recommended for ages 3-12, parents can attend too. If parents ALSO want to make pottery, just purchase a 2nd admission.
For 5 weeks, attendees will work on a new creation together with Ona’s guidance. If something comes up and your little one misses a class, Ona can furnish you with some raw materials to craft at home, and she will fire it before the class is over for the season.
This is primarily a hand building pottery class (pinch, coil, slab and sculpture techniques will be taught) but participants will have two classes with individual lessons on a pottery wheel as well with a special guest instructor.
Date: Every Wednesday for 5 weeks, April 12th through May 10th
Time: 4pm-5:30pm
Location: The History Barn at Hickory Nut Gap Farm
Price: $325
