| Hand-painted pottery has a rich legacy of storytelling, from the Grecian urns that document the perils of Orpheus and Eurydice to modern coffee mugs that foretell epic tales of the world's greatest grandpa. Paint your own story with today's Groupon: for $25, you get $50 worth of bisque pottery painting and glass fusion or $50 toward any art class, camp, or party at Artistic Way, located in Forest Hill. This Groupon covers the studio fee ($5 for children younger than 12, $7 for adults). Artistic Way's community-focused facilities guide families and individuals of all ages to self-expression through art making. Choosing from a stock of 200 pottery pieces, including a round-rim dinner plate ($18) or cupcake box ($14), pottery painters expand ceramic horizons with colourful brush and sponge work. Glass fusion, on the other hand, puts a glossy sheen on visitors' artistic aspirations as they embellish and meld ornaments, bowls, and picture frames formed from fragments of nature's kaleidoscopic vanity plate (starting at $12). Completed ceramic pieces are glazed or gently reassured before a kiln firing, while glass pieces are either kiln fired or moulded to bowl form by slumping ($6). Gaggles of artisans come together to celebrate the creation of fully realized projects at instructor-led art parties (average $230), and art camps encourage budding artists ages 4 to 18 explore the flat and formful arts in morning or afternoon sessions ($195/week, $60/day for half day, $350/week, $85/day for full day). All-ages class programs foster further understanding of multidimensional media such as drawing, painting, glass making, animation, and invisible squid-ink calligraphy (starting at $300). |
