Art Studio

At Small Hands Big Art, we believe that art is more than just a nice picture. It's a process that encourages kids to experiment, problem-solve, and take risks in a safe and supportive environment. Our Pottery and Art classes, camps, parties & workshops help to foster creative expression and build self-confidence in children of all ages. 

We are proud to provide a unique learning experience for your little artists in our South Charlotte and Fort Mill studios. Our award-winning children's art programs are rooted in fine art principles and fused with contemporary trends, allowing each child to express themselves in a creative and individual way. From toddlers to teens, and adults too, Small Hands Big Art is the perfect place to nurture your child's creative spirit.

Pottery classes are a great opportunity for older children and adults to explore the mess, the joy, and the challenges of working with clay. No picking pre-made pottery off a shelf to paint here! Each artist experiences the entire process of sculpting, beginning with wet clay and ending with kiln fired ceramic pieces!
They will absorb fun factoids about kiln temperatures, the history of pottery making and practice rolling coils, building slabs, & creating textures & unique surface patterns.  Ages: 6-14, and adult classes too!

Pottery & Ceramics - For Kids + Adults

Mixed Media + Pottery Camps! Imagine combining your wildly imaginative children with impressive art supplies, phenomenal art teachers, oodles of fun & a dash (or 8) of glitter. All you need to worry about is deciding where you're going to display your new art or pottery collection!

Our fun & enriching half-day Summer Camp programs for kids ages 4 - 14 educate, inspire & entertain your creative young artists! Pottery Camps are for kids ages 6 +. Variety is the spice of life so all of our camps offer a wide range of project topics and supplies that will spark their creativity & expose them to a stimulating mix of age-appropriate art techniques each day. Themes? Way too limiting & not our style!

Cool + Creative Camps

Fine Art and Pottery Classes for Kids & Adults: Our weekly classes for kids ages 18m - 16 yrs (and adults!) are rooted in fine art principles, fused with contemporary trends, & slathered in your child's individual expression! Explore painting, drawing, sculpture, pastel, printmaking, and more throughout each 6 week's session.
