ceramic craft activities for all
Blaze STL is helping Baptist Children’s Home of Southern Illinois with training and studio support. Their new recreation director traveled from Southern Illinois for ceramic lessions in wheel throwing and hand building. Topics included glaze mixing, kiln operation and repair, slip casting. and a number of other things needed for basic studio operations.
Come join us for a fun afternoon playing in the pottery studio with the pottery wheel, raku firing, warm glass and handbuilding holiday ornaments.
Shop for finely crafted decorative and functional pottery. Handmade pottery makes a wonderful gift for that special person in your life.
Blaze STL provides pottery studio activities for nonprofit organizations. If you know of a group that can use our support, this is a great opportunity to tour the studio and see what we have to offer.

“Bowls for Pups”
The 7th and 8th grade students at Holy Trinity School are working on a clay project to help the Humane Society. The students are making clay bowls to be donated to the Humane Society in an effort to promote adoption over buying from breeders. Art teacher, Kate Eckelkamp, was awarded the Maritz Arts and Education Fund for Teachers Grant, to allow the students to work with a new medium of clay. The students have spent time studying the art of their culture and have chosen a design to reflect their own heritage. In April, they will visit with the Humane Society and the students will match their bowl with a dog. That bowl will then go home with the dog when it gets adopted.
While at the Humane Society the students will get to experience their educational including a view of a surgery and a dissection in their new education classrooms.
