Pottery Studio Annual Access
Annual Access is designed for potters who can work independently in the studio. To purchase Annual Access, you must have completed our Beginner Intensive course or an equivalent program at another studio (please contact us for approval). If you’re still developing your skills, or unsure how often you’ll attend, we recommend starting with Drop‑In access.
Who Can Purchase Annual Access
To purchase Annual Access, you must meet the following requirements:
- Independent Studio Use: You must be able to work independently in the studio.
- Required Training: You must have completed our Beginner Intensive Course or an equivalent program at another studio. Contact us to confirm eligibility for external programs.
- Studio Orientation: All Annual Access users must complete both:
- the studio orientation video, and
- an in‑studio orientation session before booking independent studio time.
- Demonstrated Skill Level: You must demonstrate comfort with studio procedures before using the studio on your own.
You will not be able to use the pottery studio or book appointments until all orientation steps are complete.
How Annual Access Works
How Annual Access Works
Access Period
Annual Access follows a fixed yearly cycle from May 1st of the current year to April 30th of the following year. Please note that Annual Access is not prorated.
Alotted Hours
Annual Access is based on a yearly average of usage. You receive the same number of hours whether you purchase on May 1st or later in the year. Your hours are yours to use throughout the year.
Example: A Hobby Potter receives 96 hours annually. You may use these hours across 12 months or in fewer months – except during busy season.
Busy Season
From September 1st to November 30th, Annual Access users must follow their allotted monthly time. Example: Hobby Potter = 8 hours per month.
Refunds & Transfers
Annual Access is non‑refundable and non‑transferable. If you are unsure how often you will attend, we recommend choosing Drop‑In access. You may upgrade your Annual Access level at any time throughout the year.
