As a bonus, each week of the course, you will have an additional 2 hour Open Studio block at your convenience for practice and reinforcement of your class learning. 

Course fees cover all necessary materials, including clay, glazes, and firing, as well as basic tools required for your coursework.

Any extra work beyond the course requirements will incur additional costs.

To ensure a comfortable experience, please bring your own large towel and apron, as pottery can get a bit messy!
