DROP-in memberships

THE NEXT STEP IN YOUR POTTERY JOURNEY

Our Drop-In Membership is designed for potters who have the foundational skills and knowledge to create with clay independently, but still value being part of a supportive community that includes our team of experienced potters.

Pottery is all about practicing and exploring new techniques! You’ll have plenty of time to do both during the four hour membership sessions, with the comfort of knowing an experienced staff member is nearby to answer questions. 

We encourage members to sign up for at least 2 or 3 months to make the most of your time at the studio, but not required.
