Pottery Summer camp 2026
Welcome to the most comprehensive ceramics experience ever.
Spend one unforgettable week diving deep into clay with a jam-packed program designed for curious, creative kids.
What we’ll explore
Across the week, campers will get hands-on with a wide range of techniques and processes, including:
Wheel throwing
Handbuilding
Nerikomi and neriage
Slip casting
Horsehair raku
Glass melting
Glazing and decorating (pre-made AND their own)
Clay processing, recycling, and material-making
Campers will also explore forms like cups, bowls, plates, and bottles — plus plenty of room for experimentation.
Projects + free-make + fun
This is a high-energy, creativity-first camp with:
Guided projects
Individual personalization
A re-creation challenge
Park trips with play/relax time
Real educational learning (terms like greenware and materials like slip)
Locations (and a studio pup)
Our main studio (Where pickup and drop off is) is at 786 9th Avenue, and we’ll also take short trips to Ceramics on 10th, Zerimar Clay, and DeWitt Clinton Park. Multiple locations ensures each day stays fresh as we learn how pottery studios operate and function. Different studios allow us to explore multiple firing temperatures,materials and processes.
And yes — there’s a beloved studio pup: an Aussie who’s wonderful with children of all ages. She's here all week so the camp is not suitable for those with allergies to dogs.
Schedule + staffing
Monday–Friday, 9:00am–5:00pm
2-3 instructors present throughout the day
Please send kids to camp with snacks, a water bottle, and packed lunch plus a towel for sitting at the park.
Pick-up timeline for finished work
Some pieces may be ready as soon as the next day, but many items will be ready for pick-up about one week after camp ends.
Finished work is held for a maximum of three weeks from the last day of camp.
