Join us with Master Potter Rick Hamelin for a a fast paced educational program. Program includes the making of golems (clay creatures that have been magically brought to life), Storytellers (clay figurines made by the Pueblo people of New Mexico), face jugs and many other figural forms while sharing the fascinating history and multicultural stories hidden in each piece of clay.Group will be passing from person to person a freshly made pot from the potter’s wheel and get the chance to feel a dry and wet pot as it rotates on the wheel. Each person will also make a pinch pot (cup made from a ball of clay by pinching the clay with the thumb and finger) and the unfired piece goes home with the participant. For families with children ages 5 and up. 

This  program is funded by the Jen Kane Scholarship and Charitable Trust
