Bring Clay Club to you Care-home

“Clay club” is a group session for care home residents. The club regularly comes to you, bringing all the clay and equipment needed for a playful sensory experience!

SESSIONS

Every session will have a theme relating to the time of year and a focus on what to make, from pitch pots to sculptures!

The sessions will be run depending on the ability of each resident. Options are kept open and as flexible as possible to allow the residents to lead the session in the direction they want. There will always be a range of choices for residents to try, based around hand building techniques. Different skills appeal to different people. Some residents might just want to feel the clay in a more sensory way, some might want to concentrate on individual projects, and some might want to create a group installation!

  • There are different ways to run the sessions, depending on budget:

  • Clay can simply be recycled to use the following session

  • Clay can be air-dried, then painted with acrylics

  • Clay can be kiln-fired, then returned to be painted with acrylics (allows for a stone-hard piece)

Clay can be kiln-fired, painted with glazes, and fired for the second time to produce a real pottery piece

Residents get to keep the final artwork, to show it off in their room, gift to relatives, or even display to visitors in a mini gallery arranged by the care home!
