Pottery Class/A Place of Enjoyment, Community and Growth

Pottery Class
Watching other people enjoy and grow in art is so satisfying, especially to a former art teacher.  Hyde Park Art Studio is a rare place in city recreation centers.  It has equipped art studios and artists who are instructors.  If your community or city does not offer this, then you will want to consider it.  It benefits the community so much.  All ages of people come. There are children's classes as well.

We have three Betsy's in this small class/this her organic plant pot

These are just a few individuals in a community learning and sharing, but more so they build a bond that strengthens the whole area and gives back.

It does not matter if it is for art shows, themselves or others, they are creating.
