Belger Arts runs its Kids Art Camp at Belger Crane Yard Studios in Kansas City, offering four one-week (Monday-Friday) sessions for children ages 7-12 led by experienced art educators. Campers work on the pottery wheel and handbuilding clay projects plus 2D art, ending each week with a gallery tour and group art show.

Powered by GoogleBelger is a well maintained studio focused on professional artists. Incredible skyline views of downtown. Instructors are helpful, rules are enforced. Kansas City is host to many other ceramics studios if you’re looking for a smaller space for beginners or community vibe.
My husband took me to the date night hand build planter class for my birthday. We had so much fun!! Heidi was an excellent teacher and just had a great vibe. We can't wait to take another class!!
Super cool ceramics. Love that all the art is local. Very imaginative. The 3D astronaut on the space shuttle was my favorite. The path from the parking lot to the door is not very accessible for wheelchair users due to the rock lot.
We booked a date night pottery wheel class and it was the best of times! Allison, one of the current residents, was our instructor. Her directions were clear and set us up with realistic expectations. My only advice — don’t try to do it with long nails! I can’t wait to go back and try again another time.
The most impressive ceramic studios and gallery I've ever seen. It has everything a ceramics maker and collector could ever want or need. Top notch in every way. I can't say enough good things about this place. Everything a ceramicist could need under one roof. There's a lithography studio upstairs with an impressive gallery upstairs. All of this is in a beautifully restored historic building with ample parking. I am floored by how well they planned, executed, and manage this gem of the Kansas City arts community.
