You will learn about clay, sculpture and pottery while you create using The Clay Box each month. Each box is filled with high quality art materials, tools and easy to follow illustrated step by step instructions. Save all of the tools you get in each clay box to grow your collection of clay tools. Use the tools on future Clay Box lessons or to sculpt and create on your own.
The Clay Box comes with an awesome clay lesson and enough supplies for two people. The Clay Box is perfect for friends, siblings, or an adult and child. Each month you will receive a brand new lesson in The Clay Box.
You will grow as an artist as you create new sculptures each month. Artists grow by creating art. The Clay Box is like a date you set for yourself to make art. Each month you will grow as an artist while you learn about the world and how clay has been used by humans for thousands of years.
The Clay Box was designed by art teacher Ruth Post. Ruth has over 30 years of experience as an art teacher and has brought the joy of working with clay to thousands of children. Ruth knows that the art supply children are most excited about using is clay. It is the perfect tactile and moldable material for little hands to manipulate. To a child clay is magical. They love to squeeze it, poke it, pound it and shape it. When you combine clay with a child’s imagination the possibilities are endless. Providing children with monthly experiences using clay helps children to master the material. Children can then use clay as a medium to express their own ideas and life experiences through art making. Developing skills takes time and practice with any art medium. The Clay Box is a way to give your little artist the opportunity to make a new clay sculpture every month.
Ruth's mission is to help little artists grow into BIG artists.
