Before you come

Your first class

We have all the tools you need at the studio, if you would like to bring an apron or small hand towel or any tools that you have from previous clay experience.

Drinks with lids are welcome, but please no food unless you plan to take a break on the deck.

Please wear comfortable clothing and footwear that you are alright getting dirty. Most of our materials wash out, but some of the darker clays and other materials may stain lighter clothing.

Everything is included — clay, glaze, firing and two open-studio passes.

Two students at side-by-side wheels with yellow splash pans, a wooden deck behind them.
