Stay Tuned For Pottery Projects at Alimacani!

Such great news!  Thanks to the Alimacani PTA and all the students who participated in our Turkey Trot school fundraiser, we have a new addition to our art program:  a new, state of art kiln so our students can create beautiful pottery projects!  This long overdue piece of equipment will allow every student at Alimacani to create a clay project to treasure a lifetime.  We are SO fortunate to have a committed PTA and supportive families to help make this happen.  

Not only will students create a clay masterpiece, they will learn the science behind the firing process and how Native Americans and other primitive cultures around the world created and fired pottery before the invention of electric kilns.

Ask your students where we would go to find clay for pottery and how primitive cultures fired the clay to become strong and hard.
