About the event
BIPOC and non BIPOC campers are welcomed to this special week of summer camp where we explore artists of color and learn from artists of color from Asheville! This space is created so that BIPOC summer campers can have more of a chance to see campers who look like them in their week of camp.
Summer Pottery Camp is a creative and fun week where potters discover new techniques through a spiraling hand-building curriculum in the morning (pinch, slab, coil techniques) in morning hand-building class and wheel throwing techniques in an afternoon one-on-one throwing tutorial. Potters will enjoy the outdoor environment with additional guided activities on the property like rope swings, wooden sculpture, baking, fruit carving, painting, fiber arts and more in a relaxed, quiet outdoor environment. Camp is open to beginners and experienced potters. Camp is open to ages 5-16. The average age of campers is 5-10, and most campers aged 12 and up are helpers, but campers that age are welcomed, often with a friend is nice for them. There are usually a few campers who are older who are not helpers, and they can be with older helpers during the day as well.
Camp is 10am - 4pm with additional hours available from 9am - 5pm for $10/ hour per child.
This is a drop-off camp and entirely outdoors. Please note that there will be a $75 fee to change weeks.
