The Community School of the Arts recently hosted a weeklong ceramics workshop for 11 Clarksville Academy students.
Clarksville Academy’s Christine Lindsey and her students worked with Austin Peay State University Professor Wansoo Kim.
“It was an absolute pleasure working with Christine Lindsey and with Clarksville Academy,” said Dawn Martin Dickins, Community School of the Arts (CSA) coordinator. “The students worked really hard and created some amazing work.”
They worked every day from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Jan. 3-7 during the academy’s Winterim, a special learning session at Clarksville Academy.
“On day one, they learned throwing on a potter’s wheel,” according to the Winterim webpage about the week. “Students made mugs, bowls and mushrooms for fairy gardens.”
The students who worked with Kim were:
