There is no partial refund for missed classes. Late arrival will result in missed demonstration. Our instructor will not be able to repeat it for you so please arrive on time. All course work must be completed in the studio. We are only able to fire pieces made in the studio under instructor's supervision to minimize the risk of pieces exploding during firing.

For missed classes in the last two weeks, rescheduling will not be possible due to firing schedules.
