WEYBURN – The Weyburn Art Gallery will be home to around 600 monsters this week, and residents are welcome to come and view them.
Regan Lanning, art curator and instructor, estimates close to 600 students took part and created pinch-pot clay monsters at the Credit Union Spark Centre as part of the May Clay program, which wrapped up on Friday.
She provides very little by way of rules, as she leads the students through the initial steps for making each part of the monster, with the only rule is what colour to make the feet, as they are colour-coded by school, and how to attach them to the bottom.
Each student puts their initial on the feet, so they can be given to the right student at the program’s end.
The students painted their monstrous creations with their own colour designs, and Lanning has fired each batch of monsters in the pottery studio kilns.
Before she sends them home with the students, they are 小蓝视频 displayed on a table in the Weyburn Art Gallery, and Lanning has challenged the students to bring their parents by to see the finished glazed versions of their clay monsters.
The program was supported by the Young Fellows Club, who provided a $1,000 donation to help with the expenses of clay and supplies for the 600 students to attend.
