Tinker @ Lafayette: Puppy Camp*6 - 10Adopt your own puppy!!! That's right, each camper will go home on Friday with a NEW PUPPY *stuffy* πŸ˜‰! In this crowd favorite camp, we'll spend the week making sure your new playmate has a cozy puppy blanket, leash and collar, toys to play with, and of course a water and food bowl. You don't want to miss this super fun week of camp, so go ahead and register and then start thinking about your puppy's name!

We're so excited to kick off a new partnership with Lafayette Arts Hub this summer, and bring Tinker camps to Lafayette! Less than 6-to-1 student-teacher ratio, a fantastic space, a fun fenced in outdoor play area, and some of our favorite Tinker camp themes -- it's going to be so great! If you're a Lafayette, Louisville, Eerie, or Broomfield local, we hope to see you there this summer!

Tinker @ Lafayette: Rainbows & Unicorns*5 - 9Do you love all things rainbow 🌈 and unicorn πŸ¦„?!

We'll make a giant colorful rainbow ready to brighten up any space, create a rainbow prism suncatcher, a wearable unicorn horn headband and rainbow mane, learn to paint a unicorn (or foxicorn, frogicorn or another unicornified animal of your choice!), make our own flip sequin fabric fidget boards, and lots more rainbow and unicorn inspired art all week long!

Tinker @ Lafayette: Rocks & Crystals*6 - 10Do you love rocks and crystals? Because we do! πŸͺ¨ And we want to hang out and make art about them all week long! We'll kick off our week by making a functional wall hanging display case for your most precious rocks and crystals. Next, we'll deck out magnifying glasses before we crack open our own geodes and use the crystals inside as inspiration for a watercolor painting. We'll also explore buidling rock sculptures, and so much more during this fantastic week of camp! ✨

Tinker @ Lafayette: Swifties Camp*7 - 11πŸ“£ Calling all Swifties!! Let's make the most of your summer camp era! ✨ In this sparkly week of art, we'll decorate our own sunglasses, make glammed out (faux) microphones, and beaded friendship bracelets galore! Campers will take their room decor to the next level, making a custom jumbo friendship bracelet garland, with the word of their choice at the center. We'll also decorate our own real vinyl record, and turn it into a functional wall hanging with display hooks. And of course... with Taylor Swift music playing all week, we're sure at least a handful of spontaneous sing alongs will fill the studio too! 🎀 Don't miss this super fun week of camp!

FIRED UP & TEEN POTTERY
GLAZE CLASS INFO





GLAZE CLASS: So that we can work on the wheels all 5 days, attendance at an additional afternoon Glaze Class back in the studio is required in order to glaze all pieces made during camp. Glaze Class is included in the price of this camp, and is generally held the week after your camp (on Wednesday from 4:15-6pm). Please find your Glaze Class date from the list to the right -->

POTTERY PICK UP: All pieces will be fired in the kiln after glazing (with dinnerware safe glazes), and ready for pick up 2 weeks after your Glaze Class. You will receive an email when your pottery is ready for pick up. Please plan to promptly pick up your pottery as we have limited storage space. Pottery will be held for 3 weeks after your pick up email is sent.
