Clay Afterschool - Monday Preteens (Spring '26)
Mon, Apr 27 · 3:00 PM
Artshack Annex · Bedford-Stuyvesant
At Artshack, we believe art is an important tool for self-expression, problem-solving, and growth. This season, young artists will explore the world of clay, learning hand-building, the pottery wheel, and various tools. Alongside their clay work, they’ll engage in drawing, drafting, and sketching: essential practices that help children develop their ideas, refine compositions, and expand their creative thinking. Our teaching artists will guide students through a wide range of mixed-media techniques, including printmaking, felting, and sculpture. Each project encourages process-based art-making, where children experiment, make discoveries, and build confidence in their creative abilities. At Artshack, we provide a safe space for children to take creative risks, collaborate with peers, and develop their unique artistic voice, all while deepening their understanding of art as both a practice and a form of personal expression. 𓏊𓏋𓎟𓎺 SPRING SEMESTER: April 13-June 26 𓏊𓏋𓎟𓎺 HOLIDAYS: May 25, May 27, Jun 4, Jun 5, Jun 19 = MONDAYS = ∆ Clay & Mas (7-11y) / 3:30-5:30 ∆ PRETEENS (9-12) / 3:30 - 5:30 PM = TUESDAYS = ∆ KIDS (5-8y) / 3:00 - 5:00 PM ∆ PRETEENS (9-12y) / 3:00 - 5:00 PM ∆ PORTFOLIO CLASS (9-13y) 4:00 - 6:00 PM = WEDNESDAYS = ∆ KIDS (5-8y) / 4:00 - 6:00 PM ∆ PRETEENS (9-12y) / 4:00 - 6:00 PM ∆ TEENS STUDIO MENTORSHIP (12-15y) / 4:00 - 6:00 PM = THURSDAYS = ∆ CLAY CLUB* (4-12y) / 3:00-5:00 ∆ PRETEENS ON THE WHEEL (9-12y) / 3:00-5:00 = FRIDAYS = ∆ KIDS (5-8y) / 3:00 - 5:00 PM ∆ PRETEENS (9-12y) / 3:00 - 5:00 PM //////////////////////////////// ***Pick-up Service Available: Arts and Letters 305 United (Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays) *CLAY CLUB Join us for Artshack’s first-ever Clay Club: a relaxed, drop-in clay studio on Monday and Thursday afternoons!
