Join us for a creative clay-making adventure where kids will explore the fascinating world of hieroglyphics, pictographs and line drawing!
In this hands-on class, young artists will learn to shape and mold their own clay creations, using ancient symbols and designs as inspiration.
Children will begin by discovering the history of hieroglyphics and pictographs and how these symbols tell stories. They'll then use their imaginations to carve and emboss unique images into their clay pieces, bringing their own narratives to life.
Allow 3 weeks for drying, bisque and glaze firing, then return to collect your work
