The fine print

Studio policies

Please take a moment to review our guidelines. They help us keep the studio safe, respectful, and enjoyable for everyone.

Booking & payment

  • All class and event bookings must be made in advance through our website, by phone, or in person.
  • Payment is due at the time of booking to secure your spot.
  • We accept all major credit and debit cards, as well as studio gift cards.
  • Prices are subject to change, but confirmed bookings are locked in at the rate paid.

Cancellations & refunds

  • Cancellations made more than 48 hours before a class or event are eligible for a full refund.
  • Cancellations within 48 hours will receive studio credit valid for 90 days.
  • Private lessons require 24‑hour notice for cancellation or rescheduling; late cancellations incur a 50% fee.
  • No‑shows are not eligible for refunds or credits.
  • If the studio cancels a session (rare!), you will receive a full refund or the option to reschedule.

Age requirements

  • Kids’ classes are designed for ages 5–12. A parent or guardian must sign a waiver before the first session.
  • Adult classes and events are 16+ unless explicitly stated as all‑ages or family events.
  • Students under 18 in adult classes must have a signed parental consent form.

Studio safety

  • Closed‑toe shoes are required in the pottery and kiln areas.
  • Long hair must be tied back when using the potter’s wheel.
  • Follow instructor guidance when handling glazes, kiln equipment, or sharp tools.
  • Food and drinks are allowed only in designated areas, away from art materials.
  • Report any spills, breaks, or injuries to staff immediately.

Studio conduct

  • We maintain a welcoming, inclusive environment. Harassment, discrimination, or disruptive behavior will not be tolerated.
  • Respect other students’ artwork, materials, and personal space.
  • Clean up your workstation after each session — brushes, palettes, and wheels should be left as you found them.
  • Personal belongings should be stored in provided cubbies; the studio is not responsible for lost items.

Pottery & fired work

  • Fired pieces are typically ready 2–3 weeks after creation. We'll email you when they're available for pickup.
  • Unclaimed work will be held for 60 days. After that, it may be donated or recycled.
  • We do our best to fire all work carefully, but occasional cracks or glaze imperfections are part of the process. The studio is not financially responsible for kiln mishaps.
