Know before you go

  • Despite all precautions taken, firing the pieces always carries a risk of breakage or cracking. These unforeseen circumstances are an integral part of working with clay, and neither the studio nor the instructor can be held liable for them.
  • For your comfort, we recommend wearing clothing suitable for the workshop and for cleaning up at the end of the session (leggings, loose-fitting pants, or clothes that can get dirty).
  • It is also best to: keep your nails short; tie back long hair; and bring your own apron if you have one.
