An afternoon with clay!

This weekend we held the first (of hopefully many!) pottery workshops at Baan Nana

After a quick explanation of the pottery process and a few basic demonstrations the kids enthusiastically got ‘stuck-in’, once again displaying their extensive and varied creative talents…by the end of the day we had a multitude of sculptures, pots, vases, masks, animals and plaques….you name it!!

Not only was this a fun filled (..and messy!) day which channelled the kids creative energy but we hope to eventually produce pieces that we can display, sell and hopefully use!

Many thanks to Somluk Pantiboon, the owner Doy Din Dang Pottery for kindly donating 50kg of clay as well as the opportunity for some of our kids to visit his workshop in Chiang Rai where they’ll get to see all the different stages of ceramic making, as well as the chance to glaze and decorate their own masterpieces!
