My Project

We would relish more clay and a variety of glaze colors, along with some new kiln accessories to help us. We are thrilled to have the only elementary ceramics program in New York City!

It is fascinating watching our students who struggle the most with attention issues blossom when their hands first touch and experience clay!

Our students will be able to create professional grade ceramic pieces, from which they can eat and drink! Thank you all for the support. We are so proud of our students and the work that they have done, and can’t wait to see what their beautiful brains will make next!
