Creative Summer Program: Clay Fountain

Let’s get our hands into some clay!  In this hands-on workshop Carolina will meet you in Zoom and teach you how to make a clay pot in the style of the Diaguita people. The Diaguita people are an indigenous group native to Chile, and they existed mainly from 900 to 1200.  They are known for their pottery, and would make functional ceramic pieces. The workshop is 75 minutes long and everyone will make a lovely ceramic piece.  Participants will need to have markers, water, and supplies to cover your table in addition to the supplies picked up from the library.  For young children, a parent’s helping hands are recommended
