MINNEAPOLIS – Mudluk Pottery is offering weeklong pottery camps designed to spark creativity in young artists this summer. From sculpting whimsical fairy houses to learning how to use the pottery wheel, children will have the opportunity to explore clay, develop new skills, and create unique pieces they’ll treasure.
A legacy of learning and creativity
Before founding Mudluk Pottery, the owner ran Seeds, a daycare rooted in hands-on education and creative exploration. With more than two decades of experience in children’s education, this mission now extends into the world of pottery, giving kids a space to imagine, build, and express themselves through art.
Program details
The weeklong camps are open to children ages 7-16 and offer:
- Hand-building techniques for sculpting and creative play
- Wheel-throwing basics for those interested in pottery fundamentals
- Engaging themes such as fairy houses, monster sculptures, and animated figures

All materials, including clay, glaze, firings, and tools, are included in the camp fee.
