What Does Krista Cameron Pottery Do?

“One of my biggest aims is to make pottery accessible. I believe creativity enriches the world and makes lives better”

My goal has always been to connect people to art and creativity. And, over time, I've started to make pottery accessible.

Before that, pottery always seemed like something for the wealthy as you had to buy your own kilns, clay etc. But I wanted it to be available for people who didn't have years to invest saving up for expensive equipment.

I believe in the beauty of creating. It brings so many health benefits to both adults and children. And, there's nothing like art to bring communities together. Unlike other community building activities that usually focus on sports or fundraising, in pottery classes there is no competition. It's all about connecting and growing as an individual and a group.

In the Brockville-Athens Community, I offer a variety of classes that help my people connect with clay.

Classes
8 Week Pottery Classes In Athens:
The 8 week classes provide a chance for people in and around Athens, Ontario to join us for an intensive pottery class. Self-directed in regards to content but hands on with support and access to materials. The class allows students to express and explore creativity with an expert potter for support.

Beginners Pottery Classes in Athens:
I offer a 3 lesson beginners pottery class in Athens. The classes are spread out over 4 weeks and provide the basics you need to know such as glazing, throwing, and hand sculpting. They're super low cost and designed to provide a taster to those interested in more intensive classes (like the 8 week class) or those who simply wanted to try out a new skill. Students usually finish their 3 classes with about 12 items.

School Workshops:
Throughout the school year, I host many workshops around Brockville, Prescott, Mallorytown, and Athens (to name a few). I also work with the local authorities to ensure that pottery is accessible to new parents and their infants. I love seeing the little footprint holiday ornaments. Get in touch to find out about the next classes.

I pride myself on having Krista Cameron Pottery offer a variety of classes to suit different skills, allowing students to ‘try out’ pottery, and make it accessible to children and individuals with disabilities.

Our mission is to ensure that everyone, regardless of age and ability, experiences art and the confidence that comes with it.
