Teens will experience the use of clay and molding it into an adorable gnome during this hands-on workshop!

Taught by Master Potter Rick of Pied Potter Hamelin, this workshop is where creativity knows no bounds!

While exploring hand-building techniques such as pinch pots, coils and slabs, teens will work with white clay and transform it into a gnome. Each teen will paint their creation, and then take it home at the end of the workshop.


Grades 6-12 only. Online registration is required as space is limited.

Sponsored by the Wilbraham Friends of Library.
