TEEN & FAMILY CLAY
Teen and Family Clay is back! We are thrilled to offer our free weekly summer ceramics and dinner Friday night workshop during this summer. Teen & Family Clay is a free, drop-in series designed for youth, families, and caregivers to explore clay together in a relaxed, supportive environment. No experience needed.
Each week offers a new hands-on project led by local teaching artists, with opportunities to try pinching, coiling, slab building, wheel throwing, glazing, and more. Whether you’re new to clay or have made before, these sessions are a great way to slow down, get creative, and enjoy the process of making.
After each workshop, we’ll share a free community meal from a local Poughkeepsie restaurant and celebrate what we’ve made together.
