Soft Clay

Soft Gold Studio offers a dedicated 10-week ceramics-based day program designed specifically for NDIS participants. Held in our calm and welcoming Richmond studio, this program supports participants in developing both creative and social skills in a structured, inclusive environment.

Each session provides hands-on access to clay and other art materials, with a focus on individual expression, gentle skill-building, and shared creative experiences. The program is facilitated by experienced teaching artists who are not only practicing creatives, but also committed to working thoughtfully and responsively with diverse needs and abilities.

The program includes:
– All materials, tools, and firings
– Expert tuition in ceramics and surface decoration
– A calm, sensory-friendly environment
– Structured activities that foster confidence and creative growth

Key outcomes:
– Capacity building through sustained creative engagement
– Development of fine motor skills and creative problem-solving
– Increased social connection, teamwork, and communication
– A stronger sense of community involvement and belonging

The Soft Clay program is a place where participants are encouraged to explore at their own pace, build relationships, and take pride in creating something truly their own.
