2011 Summer Program

The potter's wheel is one of civilization's first machines. It lets fingers sculpt and finish clay vessels precisely and efficiently. It produced containers to collect, store, and prepare food and water. Construct and learn a micro pottery's wheel powered by batteries. Make tools and a carrier. Fire and decorate your work. By making small pots we speed drying time and allow a whole course of ceramics in a week.
