Many are hosting virtual and socially distanced events, which you'll find in our Things To Do calendar. Public health experts recommend that when you go out, follow public health guidelines: wear a mask, practice social distancing and wash your hands frequently.

Kids and teens ages 8-15 can learn the basics of using a potter's wheel to make functional clay pieces and non-functional sculptures in Clay Class: Wheel Throwing at Laumeier Sculpture Park. They'll study the fundamental techniques of wedging, centering and raising cylindrical forms such as bowls, cups and vases.
The class also includes an introduction to glazing, and is designed for beginners and those slightly moe experienced artists wishing to brush up on the basics. Wear old clothes, bring a towel and plan on getting messy!
In light of mandates concerning COVID-19 and public health, classes and workshops will have limited enrollment. Indoor studio spaces are structured to allow for social distancing when seated. Face coverings will be required indoors and during times when social distancing is not possible.
This series of classes is held on Saturdays, September 26 - October 24 from 9:30 tpo 11 a.m. at Laumeier Sculpture Park. Cost is $105 for five classes.
