Young people and old people alike are more likely to be motivated when they are serving others. Finding the determination to learn a difficult skill like throwing on the wheel is not as daunting when your goal is to give back and help those in need. Students learn so much through pottery and making unique bowls. They gain even more by being empowered and recognizing that they can make a difference in the world. We plan to make a large quantity of bowls for an Empty Bowls Project we would host in our city for it’s growing homeless population. We need a potter’s wheel and slump molds so that we can make many bowls to sell (& fill) at the fundraiser. Other items will assist in streamlining productivity while allowing students to experiment with technique and creativity.
