SUMMARY:Seize the Clay Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Are you looking for a fun activity with your family or friends containing a philanthropic ingredient?\nJoin us as one of House of Shine’s enthusiastic instructors guide you in creating your own pottery pinch pots. \nBONUS – This activity will become an opportunity to support our community. Your creatively-designed pinch pots will become the vessel that collects change that you ultimately donate to a “changemaker” who has an idea to improve our community. Ideas will be shared at the Change Bowl community event on April 4\, 2026. (Think Shark Tank meets community improvement projects. Local students (ages 8-18) will submit applications and ultimately\, pitch ideas for improving our community\, and community members will serve as judges who will select the top community service projects.) \nThis workshop requires additional time for firing and glazing. You can pick up your creation 3 weeks later at the House of Shine or you can pass your creation forward and leave with a finished pinch pot made by a previous attendee.
