Art+Wellness: Making Mini Pots on Mini Wheels Winter 2023

Course Description

• Need a smaller, more forgiving way to get into Ceramics or just need a change of pace? Come and check out mini pots! And I am not just talking about mini pots, but mini wheels. My name is Micah Bernhardt, or as most know me, Mr B. I am the Ceramics teacher at Ponderosa High School and teach all the upper level Ceramic courses that include Ceramics I-IV and AP Ceramics. What started out as a way to motivate some of my AP ceramic students has quickly turned into a Ceramics II class project and a student and teacher favorite. The tiny wheels are easy to store, inexpensive, and come with all the tools you need; although I like to add a couple of items to the kits that include a fish line wire cutter, and tiny sponge. Mini pots have been a class, conference, and camp favorite!
