At Travis Intermediate School, children will have the opportunity to work with ceramics in the 2025-2026 school year. After carefully studying the history and artistry behind the creation of animals in ceramics, they will be able to create a pinch pot designed with historical relevance in mind. The young artists will also learn the science behind firing and glazing ceramic projects, and get to experience adding vibrant hues to their pieces as a finishing touch.
The Dr. David Gottlieb Education Microgrant will allow Travis Intermediate to purchase the necessary supplies to go forward with the artistic endeavor, fostering growth and learning in the creative and intelligent young minds of their students.
