CLAY LAB PASS

HOW DOES CLAY LAB WORK?

Clay Lab is an independent, drop-in clay studio available on Tuesday evenings from 5-8PM and Saturday mornings from 10AM-1PM. During Clay Labs, all supplies are provided. You may use up to 10 lbs of clay per class. We usually offer two clay bodies at a time, however you are welcome to bring your own clay if it is a MIDFIRE clay body. Please consult our staff if you’d like to bring your own clay or glazes.

You are welcome to use our wide selection of clay tools, glazes, our slab roller and electric wheels (exception: if you are new to the wheel you must first take one of our classes before using). We can fire up to 1 cubic ft of ceramics per lab session, if you’d like to fire more than this please talk to the staff and we will work out an appropriate fee.

TOTALLY NEW TO CLAY? NO PROBLEM

We welcome everyone, no matter your experience! However, this is not a class so it might help to do a little research before you arrive. There are many wonderful youtube videos on different handbuilding techniques to give you the basics of pinch pots, slab and coil building. We also love resources like Ceramic Arts Network. Our staff can offer a brief tutorial to get you started and we are always happy to answer your questions.
