Third grade students at Verne Critz Elementary School had the opportunity to explore Native American pottery and design as part of a Day in Clay Artist in Residence program.
The workshop was led by professional artist and sculptor Cliff Mendelson. Students learned about the process and effort involved in creating ceramic pieces and designed their own clay vases while incorporating symbols, patterns and imagery found in Native American works.
The Day in Clay program was made possible through the sponsorship of the South Country Educational Foundation, the PTA and art teacher Lealand Richard.
