  The general orientation will orient you with the makerspace as a whole, while our ceramics studio orientation will focus specifically on the processes and procedures in our shop. We recommend completing the general orientation before the ceramics orientation. You do not need to attend orientation before taking a class or workshop.  However, orientation is a requirement to keep using the studio after a class or workshop ends.

  Our ceramics orientation will cover: 

  • Our Safety and Firing Waiver 
  • Consumables (clay, glaze, firing)
  • Check-In and Check-Out Procedures 
  • Reserving Tools
  • Classes vs. Sign-Offs (the free sign-offs allow you to bypass our mandatory 101 classes through a verbal and physical demonstration of skill)
  • ... and most importantly: a Studio Tour!!!

  Come prepared to ask questions and have fun!
