Membership Ready
Led by Gretchen
Membership Ready is an immersive beginner series designed for students who want to confidently step into full studio membership. This condensed program takes place over one full weekend, followed by a dedicated glaze class two weeks later, giving you time to practice and come back ready to finish your work.
Over the weekend, students will learn essential studio etiquette, including how to properly set up, clean up, and share a communal clay space with confidence and respect. Instruction covers the foundations of wheel throwing, slab building, and basic attachments, giving you a well-rounded introduction to core ceramic techniques.
Two weeks later, the series wraps up with a focused glazing class, where students learn glazing basics, proper application, and studio glazing procedures.
By the end of Membership Ready, students will understand how the studio functions, feel comfortable working independently, and have the skills and knowledge needed to transition smoothly into full studio membership.
This opportunity is limited to four participants that are eager to learn and move forward into full studio membership.
