Dear Students,

Thank you for joining us! We’re thrilled to be part of your ceramics journey and look forward to supporting your growth and creativity. Below, you’ll find information about studio etiquette, access hours, and our grace period—please take a moment to review them. Keep scrolling for details about your class, including everything you need to get started. Don’t forget to check your email for updates from the studio and your instructor. We hope you enjoy your time at Green & Bisque Clayhouse and find inspiration in every moment you spend with us.

At the bottom of this page, you’ll find a student feedback form—we’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions!

Important dates & deadlines to remember!

We recommend marking these important dates on your calendars—especially regarding studio closures, extended studio access, and grace period deadlines for bisque and glaze. We understand this can be a bit overwhelming, so please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns!

We’ll do our best to send reminders about deadlines, studio closures, and other updates, so please make sure to check your emails regularly.

Please note: All student clay and greenware will be discarded on Wednesday, December 10th
