Family Studio: Nature Pinch Pots

Come and make art side by side as a family. Each week, families will explore a new medium and create a beautiful project together. Texture is found all around nature. We'll explore it in leaves, rocks, flowers, and sticks as we make pinch pots with air-dry clay.

Special Notes

  • Each person must individually register. Registered children must have be accompanied by a registered adult. This program is best suited for families with children aged 3 to 8, however, all family members are welcome. All materials and equipment are provided. Artmaking activities will involve some messiness; please wear appropriate clothing.
    Classes are confirmed one week prior to the start date. In order to help us confirm classes, please register as early as possible.

    Due to a set of stairs, this classroom is not wheelchair accessible.


About the Instructor

Erin Powell

As a child, art gave me confidence, focus, and motivation in school. I spent my free time playing in the woods, drawing, and taking care of my many pets – which included several cats and even a small flock of sheep. My artwork today is filled with inspiration from these experiences, especially nature and animals.

I enjoy sharing my talents with others; to empower the struggling student, include the exceptional, and inspire anyone with an interest in creating. I have a BFA in Art Education from Virginia Commonwealth University. I previously worked as an elementary art teacher in Charles City County. Following the birth of my 2 lovely daughters, my focus changed to Early Childhood Education. I earned a certificate in Early Childhood Education from John Tyler Community College and am currently a lead teacher at a play-based preschool in Bon Air where my days are filled with art, music, and fun with the 3-4 year olds in my class.
