Adult Ed Clay Exploration II
The REP Adult Ed Clay Exploration II class participants completed their clay bird houses and wind chimes and also got a chance to spend some time experiencing the Potter’s Wheel. The birdhouses were glazed and fired to bright and brilliant colors which are guaranteed to attract a variety of birds! The wind chimes were textured and stained with acrylic paint to give a colorful visual and textural contrast. If you listen carefully as you walk around the village, you will surely hear their beautiful chimes!!
