Instructor Peggy Slipp of the Clay Studio will guide the children through a clay project with a musical instrument theme (shakers, whistles, etc.). The Clay Studio will fire one piece of the children's work at no additional charge. Pieces will be ready for pick up at the Clay Studio after August 20th.
The Clay Studio's Mandate is to provide a facility for professional craftspeople to expand their skills, as well as a facility where the general public can become more closely acquainted with the craft community and, most specifically, the skills and tools of the clay artist; to provide exposure to the life of a professional potter and to promote pottery as a viable occupation. To be a focal point for the ceramics community of Newfoundland and Labrador through which professional clay artists can share ideas and learn from each other.

A variety of courses and workshops surveying the entire range of the ceramic spectrum including all ages, interests and skill levels; daily open studio times; long term studio rental and incubation space for budding craftspeople; technical support (advice and firing of pieces); preparation of materials (clay and glazes); sales of materials and tools; storage space for work; general consultation services for users of the studio.
