My Project

Help our high school build a ceramics program! This year, we will have a dedicated Handbuilding 1 class. We are in desperate need of foundational handbuilding tools. Handbuilding is a ceramics (clay) class that builds without the wheel.

Proper tools support our goal:

- Scoring tools: Join clay

- Rib tools: Smooth clay over molds

- Molds: build the basis for forms

- Clay keeps us building across Handbuilding 1, Autistic Support, and a unit in Intro To Art (150 students)

My students are creative and hardworking. Support their creativity today!
