Echo Ceramics is offering one week pottery camps during the summer. Camps are for children ages 10 and up (no exceptions). Camp is from 9 am to 2 pm, Monday through Friday (unless noted otherwise). Enrollment is limited to 8 students. Snack will be provided in the morning. Students need to bring their own lunch.

Students will learn hand-building techniques, such as coiling and pinching pots, making objects with slabs, using an extruder and, best of all, learn how to throw on the real potter's wheel. Children will explore how the clay is made and how it affects their everyday life.
