Teacher: Simone

Simone is a life-long ceramic artist turned teacher. She takes a playful and holistic approach to creativity. In her classes, you will find a balance of technical skill building and self-expression.  Simone explains:  β€œFor me, clay is one of many ways we can feed our souls. As we dig into the sensory experience of playing with mud, we process, release and get to know ourselves a little better. This is especially powerful when done in community. I like to believe I am not the teacher, the clay is your teacher.”
