"The lookouts"
Ceramic workshops
Children are invited to imagine a useful clay object based on objects picked up around the art center. The found objects usually range from pebbles and chestnut burrs to plane tree bark and fig leaves. Then, on the long table at the art center they will create practical objects like ceramic candlesticks or plates.
