Ceramic Studio Safety: Students should arrive with their hair tied back or up. Please leave jewelry at home or remove it during the class. Due to the nature of working with clay those with asthma or other lung issues (silicosis) may want to mask during busy periods.

Students receive 1 hour of studio time per hour of class but must attend during open hours so staff can unlock the doors. You must sign in before each studio session and at teh start of your class. A survey will be sent to students at the end of each class period, we hope you will help us plan our next round of classes by completing this survey. Students must successfully complete two ceramics classes, or be cleared by LAAC before signing up for studio memberships in the fall.
