What to wear:
Consider wearing old comfortable clothes, as working with clay is a wet and dusty pastime and some clays may stain your clothing. Many potters wear an apron in the studio, so please feel free to bring your own from home.
If you have long hair, you may wish to bring a hair tie.
It is easier to work with soft clay if you have shorter nails.
Studio Basics

Please be respectful of our neighbors when outside, as there is a residential unit above the studio.
There is no reserved parking at the studio but street parking is usually easy to find.
