Good Hygiene
Clean hands, happy artists!

Hand washing and sanitizing are encouraged before and after class, and we’ll give gentle reminders during longer workshops.
-
Our studios are cleaned and sanitized daily, with high-traffic areas getting extra love.
-
If you or your child(ren) is feeling unwell or showing signs of illness, we kindly ask that you stay home to rest and recover. Let us know, and we’ll help explore options for a make-up class if applicable.
Artwork & Pick-Up
We love seeing your creations come to life! Here’s what to expect:

Artwork left to dry can be picked up the next day.

For kiln-fired pieces, we’ll contact you via e-mail in 2-3 weeks when they’re ready for pick-up.

If there’s a kiln explosion (it happens!), you’re welcome to come back and recreate your piece—no refunds, though!
-
Please pick up artwork within 2 months; after that, we’ll have to say goodbye to make room for new projects. There will be no 'Make-Up Class' to redo the artwork.
