Children, when accompanied by an adult, are welcome, both must register. Youth who have taken a pottery class are invited to enjoy independent studio time as well. While we don’t offer formal instruction during drop in sessions, our team is happy to offer light guidance when we can. If it’s your first visit, we’ll give you a studio orientation that includes a tour and demonstration on how to use equipment, an overview of our studio guidelines, cleaning expectations after your session and an overview of our clay details.
