July and August Camp Options for ages 8-13
Kids love clay!
Looking for a creative outlet for your kiddo? Let our fun, skilled and caring instructors be their guide and spark their creativity.
Radius summer camps are all about hands-on making, a little messy magic, and building real skills along the way. This camp is less âkeep them busyâ and more about watching your kiddos light up when they realize what they can make.
Our camps are structured for learning, with dedicated time on the wheel and sculpting, so kids get to really sink into the process. Our experienced instructors bring the perfect mix of playful energy and thoughtful guidance, helping each young artist feel confident, capable, and excited to keep creating.
Expect muddy hands, big ideas, and pieces theyâre genuinely proud of.
Quality Control Cat Meeka spent some time in the studio today sniffing pots and collecting her payment scratches. â

Did you know we have a full wall of fame for our furry friends? Bring your dog, cat, bird, or pet spider in to say hello and get a portrait during open studio!â

We have some truly unique clay creations to share with you this week from the pickup shelves. â
â
This first magical creature is by @bijouallard it's hard to miss her whimsical sculpture when they appear.â Next - welp, just a lil' guy you see! Then swipe for a gaggle of funky friends. â
â
â Come be a part of the Radius Shelfie game and make some unqiue pieces of your own this season, we'd love to see your face in the studio and your work on the shelves.â
â
â
â
WIPđš Itâs been slow and steady on this one but all the pieces are through the bisque! Now to glaze , fire again, and assemble!
This beast will get fired up to cone 10 in our gas kiln @radiusartstudio and then head, long horns, wings, and claws will be adhered with a 2 part epoxy. Already sad about how much itâs gonna shrink but it should still stand over 3 feet off the pedestal.
Stay tuned!
Here is Radius community member Nikki and her clay mushroom sculptures! Wow, we love the texture of these pieces and the earthy whimsy they evoke. â
â
Fun fact: Nikki once wrote a play for her friends to perform for her 40th birthday! Such a cool idea and way to be celebrated! Nikki @niktrain â

@jfaulk leads this fun, super approachable one-day workshop. Since it only happens about once a year, weâve timed it just right so your handmade bowl will be ready during peak berry picking season!
â
Be the talk of the orchard, farmers market, or your backyard harvest⌠collecting those juicy gems in a bowl you made yourself just hits different.â
â
Bring a friend and make a day of it now, then gather berries together all summer long. Full circle, full flavor, full clay magic.â

We've been really enjoying seeing our wonderful new studio member Efrain's work @verastudioco â moving through the studio Lately! His style is a fusion of pop culture from his love of cartoons and cultural influence from his upbringing in Mexico. These influences diverge in style that is so uniquely "Efrain." â
â
Give his profile a peek, and enjoy a sensory delight! â
