FAQ

Do we offer children’s classes?

No. Our classes are adults only.  We will allow teens 16 and older to take a 4 or 8 week course, but they must sign up with a parent or guardian. For Studio Artist Memberships you must be 18 or older.

Is it possible to rent just a couple of hours to throw on the wheel?

We do offer Member Day Passes. Only available to members of the studio who want to bring a friend or family member for the day to use the studio and equipment. Must be 16 or older and must be accompanied by a member.

Do you offer ONE TIME CLASSES, DATE NIGHTS OR PRIVATE PARTIES?

We do offer a one-time class once a month on Fridays called Sip & Throw. Learn more here. We do not offer space for private parties.

What can I expect to accomplish in a four week class?

Four week classes are fundamentally beginners’ classes designed to acquaint you with the basics of working with clay and to give you the opportunity to decide whether you like the stuff or not. You will be taught to throw clay on the wheel, but you need to understand that this is far more difficult than it looks. You will also be given instruction on working with slabs and some hand-building, and you will learn to glaze.  Generally, first time students are able to create 4 to 5 pieces.

What if I miss a class?

When you sign up for a four-week session, we ask that you complete your four weeks within an eight week period.  Also, if you are going to miss more than two weeks in a row, please let us know.

Eight week classes run consecutively, so if you miss a week, you can’t make it up by simply adding it at the end of the eight weeks.  You can however, make it up by attending another class within the same week or by taking advantage of our free Open Studio time. We understand that people get sick and/or often have work schedules that can interfere with time in the studio and we try to be as flexible as possible, so talk to us so we can work it out with you.
