MEMBERSHIP = CLASSES
They are one in the same!
MEMBERSHIP
Your membership includes all day access to the studio, firing, and glazing, as well as unlimited instructional classes.
​
​We call them memberships because they include a lot more than just classes, but classes are still our focus! Memberships are great for all skill levels including those with zero ceramics experience.​
​
CLASSES
Once you become a member you can access our online class calendar and sign up for as many classes as you want!
We recommend planning on visiting the studio at least once or twice per week. ​Take a look at what classes we currently offer at the studio:
CLASS STRUCTURE
Classes are all tailored individually for the students. So any student of any skill level can take any class! Small classes allow us to cater to each student specifically on what they are working on. Guidance on what to learn next and how to grow your skills is always provided.
Class sizes are very small with only 5 students.
Ultimately, we will work with each student independently to teach at a pace that is appropriate for their skill levels and goals for the class.
​
OPEN STUDIO
The studio is open everyday from 10 am to 10 pm.
Scheduled classes are held in classrooms within the studio, allowing other studio members to work independently during all business hours.
​
SUPPLIES
Membership includes tools and glaze. The only thing you'll need to buy is clay.
Clay is available for purchase in-house, from the studio, for Tacoma Clay Art store price. The cost for clay ranges between $15-$30 per 25 lb bag.

FAQ
I ENJOY COMMITTING TO POTTERY CLASS ONE DAY A WEEK, CAN I STILL DO THAT?
You sure can. The price structure is set up to be feasible for people who just want to have class once a week. Each month, members sign up for whichever classes they want, and at the frequency that works best with their schedule!
WHY DON'T YOU OFFER CLASSES AND STUDIO ACCESS SEPERATELY?
​
We firmly believe that pottery is always a journey of learning. We never want a paywall to exist between seeing something cool and learning how to do it.
Ceramics is also all about practice. Providing unlimited studio access during classes allows you to learn as quickly as you have the time to do so.
Our combo enables students to learn faster than we have ever witnessed in any other studio.
You'll also notice that our entire membership (which includes classes) is only slightly higher priced than many other studios classes or studio access exclusively.
ONCE I HAVE A MEMBERSHIP, CAN I PAUSE IF I NEED?
​
Yes. We just ask that members provide 3-weeks notice when pausing and memberships are paused by the month. For example, if you need to pause your membership for July, just let us know by June 10th.
I HAVE NEVER DONE POTTERY BEFORE, IS THIS STUDIO TOO INDEPENDENT FOR ME?
Not at all! We offer over 20 classes a week, and work with each member to create a learning plan/ schedule for exactly your needs and what skills you wish to develop.
DO YOU OFFER KIDS CLASSES?
Due to the independent nature of the studio and the teaching styles of the instructors, we do not offer kids classes. Memberships are available to teens and adults, 14 and up. But please evaluate the independence of your kid on whether you think they would be a good fit. We acknowledge that not all kids are the same.
DO YOU OFFER DROP IN CLASSES OR PUNCH CARDS?
A membership is the main way to attend the studio, however we also offer one time intro classes on the weekends. You can sign up for a class here!
