Glaze: $5 per 2 pound project

Clay: $5 per 2 pounds of clay

THINGS TO KNOW:

Notice: An instructor must be present before starting the glaze process with studio glazes. Please let them know when you're ready to glaze for assistance with the glaze cabinet.

You are welcome to bring your own clay/glazes purchased outside of the clay studio. These must have labels and be approved by the studio manager, to ensure they are compatible with our kiln firing temperatures.

Compatible Clays: Mid-range/Stoneware clay that fires to cone 6 (NOT cone 06).

Compatible Glazes: Glazes that fire to cone 6 (NOT cone 06). Some say cone 5-6, this is okay. If you want your piece to be dinnerware safe, check the label for this as well.

Email the Studio Manager, Cat, with information at claystudio.artmosphere@gmail.com if you would like to check before purchasing.

Students are required to thoroughly clean up tools, tables, and wheels after using and put everything back in its place. The studio technician will announce clean up time 15 minutes before the end of class.

If you do not finish your project in the allotted time, you are welcome to purchase another Creative Clay Time class if you would like further assistance. You are also welcome to purchase Open Studio Time if you feel you are ready to work on your own. Please see staff for more details.

Projects will be fired in a kiln to completion. Your instructor will give you a slip at the end of class with a pick-up date.

Disclaimer: Due to the nature of ceramics, sometimes unfortunately projects can crack, break or can be damaged in the firing process even with the most care and consideration. Unfortunately this is not a cause for refunds.

Cancellation Policy: No refunds if cancelled < 1 week notice or missed due to illness or otherwise. Refunds made prior to 1 week will be sent back to card processed on minus processing fees.
