Riverview High School’s Ceramics program is a three year program that provides students with the opportunity to work in a studio with over 40k worth of supplies. This program teaches them not only how to work with the ceramics materials and tools but also how to work in a studio. This prepares them to have a career as a studio tech or a practicing artist. Donations made to the program goes directly back to the students in the form of new glazes and clay. Any size donation is appreciated. Please use the QR code to donate!!
