Animal Clay Sculpture Class for Holidays

Students 10 years and older can use their holiday freedom to make their own animal sculpture. Noted ceramist and teacher Roger Betschler will lead two classes of 10 students each in creating their favorite animal in clay.

Classes will be held on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, Jan. 2, 3, and 4, in the Gallery at 109 N. River St. One class will meet from 10 AM to Noon, and the other class from 1 to 3 PM. The cost of the three sessions is $30 plus $10 for supplies.

Betschler has taught Art for 22 years in the public schools. In this class he will teach how to draw animals with a focus on form and texture, demonstrate how to model clay to create form, and help students add texture. The finished products will be fired in his studio kilns (rogersartstudio.com) and brought back to the SOAL Gallery for pick-up.

Because the Gallery will be closed for the holidays until Jan. 2, be sure to register by Saturday, Dec. 22. To sign up or get more information, call the Gallery at 830.372.4479 or 830.379.7625.
