👐 Clay & Connect

Holiday Program for Teens | Ages 13–17

Create something. Meet others. Take a break from the everyday.

Clay & Connect is a relaxed, creative holiday workshop designed for teens aged 13–17 to come together, get their hands into clay and create their very own mug.

Held in a small-group setting, this workshop is about more than making something beautiful. It’s an opportunity to slow down, explore creativity, have a chat, meet others and enjoy genuine connection in a welcoming space — without pressure to be a certain way or make the “perfect” piece.

Meet your facilitators

Sarina — Occupational Therapist
Kate — Art Therapist

We’re two creative souls who share a passion for helping people connect — to themselves, their creativity and the community around them.

With our backgrounds in Occupational Therapy and Art Therapy, we’re creating a space where creativity can become a natural way to express, connect and engage. There’s no expectation to talk, share or “do” anything a certain way — you can simply come as you are and enjoy the experience.
