Q: Do I have to make what everyone else is? A: Not at all! While we will provide instruction for a particular piece, you are welcome to use your pound of clay to create whatever you wish—a small dish, a figurine, etc. Q: What if my piece breaks in the firing process? A: This doesn't happen often, but if it does, we will try our best to notify you ahead of time and will be happy to offer you entry to our next social for free. Q: What if I can't pick up my piece in 35 days? A: If you are not able to pick your piece up before the pickup window closes, email potspickup@gmail.com. If you do not reach out to us before the pickup window closes and your piece remains unclaimed, it will be donated. There are no exceptions to this rule. - By purchasing a ticket, you agree to our media waiver, and to also pick up your artwork 35 days from the event date.
