This week is about figuring out which one your kid wants their face to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKids build ceramic faces, masks, and character pieces — funny, eerie, dramatic, beautiful, strange, or all of the above. Monday starts with a slab-built mask base, then sculpting features: brows, noses, cheekbones, mouths, ears, horns, scales, hair. Kids learn how a tiny shape change completely changes a mood. Wednesday, once masks are leather-hard, they carve in fine detail — lines around the eyes, hair texture, scars, patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFriday is for underglaze painting, when color changes everything. The masks go to the kiln and come back two to three weeks later — strange, alive, ready to be hung on a wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"summercamp.heartandhearthpottery.com\" title=\"Pottery Summer Camp in Topanga, CA\"\u003eCheck out more summer camps! →\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e———\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMINIMUM ENROLLMENT\u003cbr\u003eCamp runs with a minimum of 3 enrolled students.
