Join the Portsmouth Historical Society for a hands-on clay sculpture workshop inspired by the bold, expressive forms of local artist Cabot Lyford. Known for his powerful animal figures and abstract forms carved from wood and stone, Lyford wasn’t afraid to experiment-and neither will we.

Kids and families will explore Lyford’s unique style, then dive into creating their own clay sculptures using air-dry clay. Whether it’s an animal, an abstract shape, or something entirely original, this is a chance to get creative and connect with the spirit of Lyford’s work.

Registration is recommended to secure your spot at the workshops. Walk-ins are welcome as long as supplies last.
