Kids Intro to Ceramics: Pinch Pots

February 7th | 12pm - 1pm Utility Works | 32 E Baltimore Ave, Lansdowne, PA

Join us at Utility Works Creative Community, and get hands-on with clay in this fun, kid-focused introduction to ceramics! In this single-session class, young artists will learn the basics of handbuilding with clay using a simple and classic technique called pinch pots.

Pinch pots are an easy, approachable way to explore clay. Kids will start by shaping a basic form and, as their confidence grows, can choose to turn it into something more imaginative, like a bowl, cup, animal, or small sculpture. 

No prior experience needed. The class is open to kids ages 6+. Parents for kids 6-13 are asked to stay; parents are welcome to play along, though will not be given individual guidance. 

This class encourages creativity, fine motor skills, and hands-on exploration in a supportive and playful environment.
