We ask for a 3-month commitment, but memberships are all billed month-to-month, so your first payment will be for the remainder of the current month. 3-month commitment for students in our 6-8-week classes is waived. Pause your membership up to three full calendar months per year with no penalty - must be full calendar month pauses, and note that we do not prorate final months.
Teen Membership $170/mo
Staffed Hours
We're delighted to welcome teen potters ages 13 through 19 as teen members! Given schedules, we've created this membership with limited hours at a discounted price, but older teens can be regular members, if more studio time is preferred.
Teen members get all of the benefits of Regular Memberships listed above, but with more limited dedicated space (one 15”x15” cubby). Studio hours are limited to when we are staffed:
Sun-Tues 12-6
Saturdays 10-6
plus anytime there’s a class in session outside of those hours, typically until 8:30 on weekdays (calendar here).
Designed for teen potters with clay experience who are comfortable working independently in the studio. Talk to us if you’re not sure, but typically a 6-10 week class in a well-equipped studio works well. Teens with less experience are welcome in our regular classes to gain experience needed for independent membership.
