Don't be mislead! Clay projects do not need to be kiln fired to create a durable project, and we emphasize the process of creating with clay ahead of the need to make a "keepsake". The projects will last for years, but actually working with clay receives the most emphasis. We are offering air dried projects at the price of $7.50 plus GST. Do it yourself! The DVD series for schools is available here. Kiln fired is still available at additional cost. We do not sell craft supplies or offer pre bisqued ceramic "paint and go" crafts for painting at this time. If you are looking for ceramics please visit Ceramic Arts!
The Clay Teacher brings the clay workshop to your classroom and works with your students or, with our DVD workshops , you can do it yourself.

What makes The Clay Teacher® "in school workshops" different from those offered by others?
Experience - Each workshop is led by two teachers with a combined fifty years of clay working experience. Cindy Clarke and Jim Willett bring a unique team approach to the presentation.
Professional Skills - From simple hand building clay projects with three year olds to advanced learning with senior high students and adults, The Clay Teacher offers the only program of its type in Edmonton presented by professional potters.
Education - It's not just about making "keepsakes" or painting trinkets. We introduce students to clay and the art creation process. We help them see and work in three dimensions.
Freedom to Create- We offer over 100 hand sculpting clay projects for elementary students and can design an in school fieldtrip workshop to meet your goals. Compare the size of the projects! We always bring more clay than required so students have plenty of creative freedom. Clay is "cheap like dirt"!
Choice - Air dry or kiln fired? Projects can be air dried and remain at the workshop location, or can be brought back to our studio for kiln firing and return in three weeks. The choice is yours! Over 5000 air dry projects have been created in the past 12 months with many repeat customers. Curious about air drying pottery clay sculptures? Read our blog Hey Teacher! where Cindy discusses the subject in depth.
Pricing is simple with no hidden charges. We also can provide extra clay for $20 a box and low odour spray on gloss sealer for $6 per can.(Every workshop includes one can at no additional cost) Call or email for details!
