Ceramics Supplies for Young Souls

Funded Jan 4, 2024

My students have been dramatically affected by your generous donations. Their enthusiasm and drive to create has soared since the arrival of our new supplies. Prior to these donations, students were offered limited glazes for their pottery, and often had to reconstitute old, dried bottles of glaze to retrieve the last few precious drops out of the bottom. This resulted in poor finishes on otherwise well-made art.

So far, I have had two classes use the new glazes. They were thrilled with the new color selections and speckled glazes! Many of them have begun to do their own research on how to layer and combine the effects of different glazes as well. Most recently, they completed some thrown bowls and slab boxes. Their final pieces were given exciting finishes and made with pride. Moving forward, they will be making animal sculptures as well as functional pieces. I look forward to seeing their future projects come to life with our newly donated supplies. Thank you again for your generosity and kindness!”

With gratitude,
