🏺 Open Studio
There comes a point where you simply want more time.
Open Studio is designed for returning students who have completed the Beginning Handbuilding Class and are ready to continue developing their skills independently.
This is not a formal class.
Instead, it provides dedicated studio time to practice techniques, complete projects, experiment with new ideas, and enjoy working alongside other makers in a relaxed studio environment.
The studio owner is present throughout each session to answer occasional questions, provide oversight, and keep the studio running smoothly, but Open Studio is intended for independent work rather than formal instruction.
Eligibility
Open Studio is available only to students who have completed:
✔ Beginning Handbuilding Class
✔ Studio Safety Orientation

If you haven't completed these requirements yet, we'd love to have you join one of our beginner classes first.
