Service Description

Join us at The Pottery Studio for a workshop where you'll create a unique mug using a slab roller, rolling pins, and templates. This is a single day workshop where students will be able to make a mug and attach a handle. You may choose a studio glaze for our instructor to apply, or opt to "return to glaze" at an additional cost. Pottery takes a week or so to dry and when the piece is thoroughly dry it is fired in the kiln and ready for glazing. Your finished pottery will be ready for pickup in 3 - 4 weeks. Students will be contacted when pottery is ready. Because of space limitation we can only hold pots for 30 days after first contact. Thank you!

Studio Rules and safety information: Please read all studio rules in the terms and conditions section before purchase. NO OUTSIDE CLAY/GLAZES (unless approved by owner) or pottery made elsewhere. Please follow all cleanliness guidelines that are posted in studio. Silica dust is deadly, and there are good reasons for all the cleaning rules posted. This is one of the cleanest studios you will ever see. Tables and floors are kept free of clay and dust, and there are no dirty tools or buckets, YOU MUST LEAVE YOUR WORKSPACE AND WHEELS CLEAN and SHELVES CLEAN thanks! (cleaning is part of making and we will show you how!) Bring your own towels and apron if you choose and bring items HOME TO WASH BETWEEN CLASSES. Dry clay creates dust. Work wet and clean wet, do not let clay dry on tools, hands, tables, towels, floors etc. Clean up dust, clay lint, clay bits immediately. All sanding is done wet no dry sanding as it creates an unsafe environment. There are no make ups for missed classes. If the instructor has to cancel, arrangements will be made to make up the time. Manage your expectations, pottery is hard! I make every effort for you to succeed, but if you are after perfection, this is not the place for you. Things happen, pieces break, glaze fails, on and on. This is an LGBTQ safe space. Please treat others with respect. We do not speak of religion, politics, work, and avoid discussions of politics, religion, personal life and health issues. The classes go by very quickly, so be sure to focus on the work. Please no food. You may bring nonalcoholic beverages, please take out what you bring in. Pottery wheels may be uncomfortable or challenging for those with back or mobility issues, please send us an email if you need assistance. If you have muscular or back problems, throwing may be a challenge for you, but you are welcome to hand build. Manage your expectations, relax and follow along with the instruction. Open studio is for returning students only. DO NOT TOUCH WORK THAT DOES NOT BELONG TO YOU DO NOT TOUCH WORK ON THE READY TO BE FIRED SHELF (even if it is yours) Dress for the weather. Please leave the studio the way you found it, and clean all materials, tools, wheels, work areas and put everything away. This is a drug free conflict free HAPPY ZONE.
