Adult Clay Membership 

PPAC is happy to offer ongoing clay memberships for

students who are looking to either learn new techniques or

improve on existing ceramics skills. All membership students

must submit an online application, participate in a phone

and in-person interview, and agree to a minimum of a 3-month 

commitment. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis,

as spots become available in the program.

Love clay? Interested in an independent study of the medium? Want to be a part of an art collective? Classes are relaxed and structured to your preference. Teaching is one-on-one as needed. You learn at your own pace and through your own individually designed projects. Class will acquaint you with the basic techniques like centering, throwing, trimming, hand-building, and glazing.

​

Pottery classes are one time per week for 2 hours (or 3 hours for Tuesday’s extended session):

​

• Monday 5:30-7:30 pm, Tuesday 9:00 am-12:00 pm (extended), or 10:00 am-12:00 pm (regular), Wednesday 6:00 pm-8:00 pm, or Thursday 6:00 pm-8:00 pm.

The total monthly cost includes: weekly class time, open studio sessions, 12.5 pounds of clay, glazes, electric kiln firings, skilled ceramic teacher, use of studio tools and throwing wheels.

​

In addition to the monthly membership fee ($195), there is a one (1) time joining fee of $75. This fee helps us set up and maintain your account and supports our teachers in interviewing new students and familiarizing them with the studio and materials.

​

Tuesday Extended Membership Option: When registering for the Tuesday class, students can choose between the regular 2-hour membership (10:00 AM – 12:00 PM) or the extended membership (9:00 AM – 12:00 PM), which includes 4-5 extra studio hours per month for an additional $50.

Pottery classes are ongoing throughout the year. Students must be interested in attending for 3+ months and have the opportunity to be a part of art shows throughout the year. Enriched classes with guest teachers skilled in the clay medium and various topical clay teachings from the instructor are also available.
