FAQ

  • What should I wear to pottery?
    We encourage you to wear comfortable clothing and close-toed shoes that you don’t mind getting dirty or stained as clay and glaze can stain. We recommend keeping your jewelry or valuable accessories at home as clay could scratch or wear your jewelry down. Using an apron or pair of overalls is also recommended.
  • Do I need to purchase my glazes?
    We have a wide selection of commercial and boutique glazes available at our studio. If you find yourself consistently using the same commercial glazes, we encourage you to purchase your own to keep in your personal pottery stash. Glazes must fire at Cone 6 and be food safe and non-toxic. If you wish to purchase your own glazes, please check to verify the glaze meets our studio requirements and provide the firing instructions and ingredient listing before making your purchase. Low-fire (cone 04) glazes are prohibited in the studio.
  • Do I need to purchase my clay?
    The class fee covers the cost of clay. We selected specific clays for handbuilding and throwing due to their unique qualities. Although you can use clay from other sources, we strictly prohibit the use of low-fire and air-dry clay due to the contamination of studio clay and the damage it causes to our kilns.
  • Can I gift classes to someone?
    YES! Give the gift of pottery: Because sometimes the best memories start with clay, laughter, and a slightly awkward pottery wheel encounter!
  • Can I take pottery classes with no prior experience?
    Absolutely! Creating an inclusive creative environment for all is one of our core values. We offer pottery classes to potters of all levels!
  • Can I be refunded if I need to cancel my class?
    When you register, we order supplies faster than a pottery wheel spins. We can provide a credit for another class or an item from our store.
  • How long is each class?
    Handbuilding classes last four weeks and are two hours long. Wheel-throwing classes last six weeks and are three hours long.
  • Do I need to purchase my tools?
    You do not need to purchase your tools. We have a wide selection of tools from a variety of companies available at our studio! If you choose to purchase your own tools you are more than welcome to bring them into the studio but please make sure you bring them home with you, we’d hate for them to go missing!
  • Can I bring a friend?
    Our classes and open studio time are open to currently registered students of our studio. We happily offer private and group lessons for those who wish to take classes with a friend or group.
