RAKU!

Ceramic artist Brett Thomas will be visiting AFS and facilitating an outdoor raku firing April 12,13 and 14. He will be working with all 3 divisions, and the Lower School will be participating all day April 13 and the morning of April 14

As the art department has been planning for the day, we thought it would be wonderful to have some Home & School and parent volunteers involved, if possible. Volunteers would be helping to move/organize the clay pieces and running some simple activities for the students to do while they are waiting outside (like drawing, playing with clay, mixing clay, etc.) They will get to see the process happening first-hand which is quite a sight to be seen! (to get an idea of what it looks like, this is Brett's website http://www.mobileraku.com/ )

We have created a Volunteer Spot to help assist in signing up volunteers for the two days. You will find the link below. Please send an email to your grade level parents requesting assistance. Of course, if you are able to help please sign up as well. Sounds like it will be a great experience for all. 

Thank you for your timely attention to this! 

Our best, 
Melissa & Fiona
