Come join friends for a morning of clay fun! This class, tailored specifically for adults with special needs or varying abilities, offers the opportunity to come together and enjoy each others company while using clay to make animals, people, masks, vases, bowls, or anything your imagination conjures up. We welcome beginner clay artists as well as those with some experience.

  • Aides are welcome to come at no extra charge.
  • Please Note:  This class is planned as an in person class and we expect that it will run the full semester in person.  However, there is an ongoing need to adhere to guidance and safety practices in order to safely manage the COVID-19 situation.  The guidelines from state government and public health authorities change as time progresses and the CAC may need to make adjustments accordingly.  It is possible that this class will transition to an online format at some point during the semester.  In this case, tuition refunds will not be issued unless the CAC is unable to provide the same number of class sessions as initially planned either in person or in a remote format.
  • All supplies including clay are provided.

Benn, Justin

Justin is a ceramic artist and teacher who leads clay and Lego classes with children at the Community Arts Center. Additionally, he assists seniors in the CAC's community outreach program at Plush Mills Senior Living. Though he is a young and budding artist, he has already developed his own unique style with his work in masks. His work centers around the way clay connects to nature, as well as the way his subconscious speaks through his hands and into his work. Justin is currently a Ceramic's Associate and kiln tech in the CAC's ceramic's studio.
