We ask that you arrive 5 to 10 minutes before the start of your session and wait in our gallery area.

Please note: late arrivals of more than 5 minutes will not be admitted to the session in order to respect the organization of the class and the other participants. No refund or rescheduling is possible.

The instructor will invite you into the studio at the scheduled start time of your class.

A few recommendations before making pottery

• Keep your nails short

• Do not wear rings, bracelets, or watches

• Wear clothing and shoes suitable for a workshop.

Welcome & Explanation — 5 min
Thank you for arriving on time. After 5 minutes of lateness, access to the workshop is no longer possible and no refund or rescheduling will be offered.

Instructor Demonstration — 15 min
A complete demonstration of the wheel-throwing steps.

Guided Practice — 30 min
A second step-by-step demonstration, as a group.

Independent Practice — 30 min
You practice on your own with instructional sheets, while still receiving help from the instructor.

Cleaning — 20 min
Cleaning the wheels and equipment is part of the workshop. Pottery is also about learning to clean your workspace!

Conclusion — 10 min
Choose one piece made during the session, which will be glazed with a transparent glaze.

You can also choose additional pieces and/or our studio-made glazes, for an additional $5 per piece and/or per glaze color.

One piece, fired and glazed with a transparent glaze, is included in the workshop.

You will receive an email approximately one month after your session, when your piece is ready. Remember to check your spam or junk folder.

You will then have two weeks to pick up your piece during our pickup hours. Please present the confirmation email. Someone else can also pick it up for you, using this email as proof.

After this period, any unclaimed pieces will be donated.

Ceramics is a delicate process: cracks or breakage can occur during drying or firing. This is part of the learning process, which is why the workshop is primarily focused on the experience and discovery, rather than the final result.

We take the greatest care with your pieces, but some may be too fragile or damaged to be fired. In this case, an appropriate replacement item will be offered to you when you pick up your piece.

Thank you for your understanding and for trusting us as you discover ceramics!
