Go big or go... bigger! This camp offers teens the freedom to scale things up while working resourcefully with varied repurposed materials. Projects will start with material exercises with wire, cardboard and clay. Larger projects will begin soon after and can include clay sculptures and large-scale papier mache pinatas and sculptures! If we have time, we’ll make mosaics too!

Drop-Off STARTS at 8:45 am. Pick-Up ENDS at 12:15 pm. Please be prompt collecting your child.
FULL DAY STUDENTS:
IF you register your child for a morning and afternoon camp in the same week, your child may spend the 1 hour lunch break with staff. Please send a lunch that does not require refrigeration or a microwave.
REFUND POLICY:
We are only able to offer refunds up to 2 weeks before the start of the first class. We do not offer refunds or credits or make-up classes to students who miss class.
TRANSFER POLICY:
We may be able to transfer you to a different class depending on space availability.
CLASS CANCELLATION:
We find that students learn better in groups. If we feel the number of registrations is too low to promote a good learning environment, we may cancel the class. In the event we cancel a class, we will reach out to you as soon as possible.
We try to make our classes as accessible to everyone as possible. We are able to offer a limited number of tuition assistance scholarships each term. You can complete an application on our website or call our office for assistance applying. Applications are available in Spanish and English.
MULTI-CLASS DISCOUNT:
When you register for more than one class, you can receive a discount up to 10% per class! You must call and register through the front office for this discount.
ADA ACCESSIBILITY & ACCOMMODATIONS:
Our classrooms are ADA accessible. Some courses may involve tasks or activities that may be difficult for individuals with limited strength, difficulty bending over, and sitting or standing for long periods of time. We are happy to work with students to find solutions to make their experience positive and doable. For example, wheel throwing takes arm strength and bending over the wheel. Students may work on hand-building projects instead of throwing. Please reach out to our office to discuss your needs.
