Clay Play I - BEG

Discover the fun of working with clay as you mold, shape, and build your own imaginative creations. Students will explore basic clay techniques as they learn how to construct simple three‑dimensional forms. Guided demonstrations will introduce foundational skills that students can apply to their own creative projects. This course will offer a supportive space for experimentation and is a strong introduction to working with clay. Because each quarter features new projects, this class may be repeated for continued growth and practice.

• Bio: I received my Bachelor's degree in Studio Arts from San Francisco State University, with a focus in painting, drawing, and ceramics. As a recent student myself, I bring fresh, modern techniques into the classroom and work to connect with young artists in a way that feels approachable and engaging. My teaching style encourages creativity and self-expression, allowing students to explore their own ideas while I offer guidance and support to help them develop their skills and confidence as artists.
