We are happy to share that the studio will be reopening on September 15th. Things will be different of course, but the changes will actually help you focus on your clay work by giving you more space and less distractions. In order to create a safe studio environment, masks will be required, access to the studio will be limited to 14 people at a time (by appointment), wheels and work tables have been arranged at least 6 feet apart, and air filtration and exhaust measures have been put in place. Please note: Courses are suspended until at least January 2021. Stay tuned for updates.
