ABOUT THE PROGRAM
​
"Hand building" is working with clay using hand and some simple tools. 
Three basic techniques will be introduced to the children during workshop.
  • Pinch work
  • Coil work
  • Slab work
Using these techniques along with their imagination and creativity, the students will hand-mould their own clay artefacts and carry them home for use after painting them. All materials will be provided in each class. Children can bring their own apron if they wish to.

With her experience as an Artist and Art teacher, she believes medium like Clay, kindles growth and skills in children. Working with clay helps them develop their motor skills, self-expression and problem solving skills.  Clay is a flexible medium that allows one to easily twist, bend, mould, curve, and polish. It has a therapeutic quality that helps children calm down and increases their attention span.
