About this class
For the first time, I am offering a pottery course specifically for children during the summer vacation in NRW 2025 (14.07.-26.8.).
In the 3-hour course, they learn how to shape and shape clay with their hands. In my cozy workshop in Telgte, they playfully discover the versatility of the material. A wide range of impression shapes also make it easier for them to model successfully.
Leaves, feathers, tree bark, etc. encourage the imaginative surface design of the clay in addition to the numerous stamps and stencils available. Modern non-toxic glazes allow children to paint their works immediately after sculpting. After firing, the glazes are dishwasher-safe and food safe.
My workshop is located in the basement of my apartment building. The garden is also inhabited by chickens, cats and dogs and can of course be explored. There is a lot of inspiration here.
My home is located in the immediate vicinity of the “Ems Auen” nature park. After making pottery, take a stroll through the park to “Dümmert”. There, an adventure playground, benches at the weir and “Klein Borzburg” a small “beach” on the Ems invite you to enjoy further experiences.
The bridge takes you to St. Clemenskirche. Right across the street, excellent cafés, ice cream parlors and restaurants invite you to relax. Here you can end the day in the relaxed atmosphere of the historic market square.
What you’ll do in the class
Each child has their own space, with a manual turntable, sound and tools. Together, we will then freely model a small bowl under my guidance. The children can then decide for themselves what they want to produce. Of course, I am available to advise you here.
They are free to model or use one of the many forms of impression. We are also welcome to go out into the garden together and be inspired by nature. Here, natural materials such as leaves, feathers and tree bark complement the large selection of stamps and stencils available for surface design.
Right after sculpting, the children can paint their works with modern, non-toxic glazes.
Who is the class suitable for?
The course is suitable for children aged 6-14 years. We work in small groups with a maximum of 8 participants, but individuals are also welcome. Of course, accompanying adults are cordially invited to make pottery together with the children. In this case, the conditions of the “Pottery for Beginners” course apply to them. This can then be booked individually under “Request an appointment”.
In addition to the published appointments, individual appointments for individuals and groups are also possible. Please use the “Appointment Requests” section and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
