The Quarry Art Centre’s After School Programme is an 8‑week course inviting students to creatively explore clay making and mixed‑media art. Book in for Term 1 as students design nature‑inspired clay tiles and a mixed‑media windchime. Throughout the term, they’ll learn about clay slab techniques and experiment with texture and relief, work with found materials like shells, sea glass, bark, leaves, and glaze their tiles to add colour and finish. The programme concludes with a collaborative exhibition celebrating their creations.
For siblings or friends in the same booking that are younger/older than the recommended age range, please check in with us first before booking via email programmes@quarryarts.org
What children need to bring:
● Suitable clothes that are okay for getting a bit dirty and potentially stained
● Clothing for the weather conditions (although our main room has a heat pump)
● pack some snacks and a drink
Parents/guardians/care-givers need to register kids on arrival and provide a designated pick-up person. Please advise us ahead of time via email of any important considerations (e.g. medical, allergies, custodial). We are unable to cater for unassisted children with special learning or behavioural support needs - we welcome support carers, but please check with us before booking.
