Teens @ LOAM

Big ideas. Muddy hands. Real studio magic.

LOAM’s teen programs are designed for curious, creative kids who are ready for more than craft projects — and excited to learn what it’s really like to work with clay in a working pottery studio.

Whether they’re joining us for a single workshop, March Break projects, or a full week of summer camp, teens at LOAM get hands-on experience with real tools, real techniques, and real creative problem-solving — all in a supportive, playful environment that celebrates experimentation and individuality.

Some kids come to try clay for the first time. Others come back again and again to build skills, confidence, and bigger ideas.

March Break Clay Days

We shape clay into a pot, but it is the emptiness inside that holds whatever we want
