Ceramix
Ceramix is a painting program for all ages. We provide you with the clay bisque, the paint, paint brushes and other tools and you create the masterpiece.
There is no artistic talent required to participate, just use your imagination and we’ll provide you with an inspiration book and helpful staff to spark your creativity.
Once you are done painting we’ll fire it in a kiln to make sure it is durable and food safe.
