In this chug kids are encouraged to explore their creativity freely, to make their own design decisions, including mistakes, as part of their creative process and personal development. Once children learn to express and execute their personal vision in clay, they become empowered in ways that go far beyond the walls of the studio.
Students learn the basic skills for building in clay including slab, coil, and pinch, as well as surface decoration and glazing. When their functional art creations are used at home it boosts their self confidence and reinforces their willingness to trust their artistic sensibilities.
Working in clay is an organic exercise in mindfulness that pays benefits in school and at home. Teachers and parents report seeing positive changes in their mood and behavior when their children participate in this chug,
