Good to Know

This is an experimental, process-focused workshop. Artworks may not turn out as expected, and Studio C cannot guarantee finished products.

After class, work will be dried, fired, and glazed by instructors. Participants will be notified by email when pieces are ready for pickup (approximately 3–4 weeks).

Please wear clothes that can get a little messy. We also recommend keeping fingernails short, as longer nails can make working with clay more difficult. Keep your hair tied back at all times.

Cancellations: We cannot offer refunds for Studio C workshops.
