ROEPER SUMMER CLAY PROGRAM 2010

Clay is an exciting and magical material. At Clay Camp children will learn the art and craft of clay while having fun and exploring their creativity! Roeper Clay Camp is a unique pottery program offering a total hands-on experience for children. We offer patient encourage¬ment and personal guidance. Classes are small, with a maximum of 12 students per class. Students receive both group and individual instruction at their own levels. A wide variety of ceramic techniques are taught: shaping clay into pinch pots, designing and constructing slab projects, building unique coil vessels, clay decoration and glazing.

Classes will be taught by Roeper faculty member, TESSA STEIN. Ms. Stein graduated with a B.A. Degree in Ceramics from the Johannesburg College of Art in South Africa. For 30 years, she has been working as a ceramic artist and educator. She has traveled extensively, working as a production potter in various countries. Her work has been exhibited in galleries in South Africa, Canada and the United States. She has an extensive teaching background, and the majority of her teaching experience has been as a resident artist in over 50 schools. Before joining the Roeper faculty in 2009, she worked in the Education Department at the D.I.A., VSA Arts of Michigan and was Education Director at Paint Creek Center for the Arts.
