We design our classes to help you find success with clay in an easy, friendly atmosphere. Each 8-week session goes by fast, so we've developed programs that focus on basic skills while you create real pieces that you can use. There's lots of wiggle room for your creativity! We keep our classes small, so there's lots of personal time, attention, and equipment to go around. Our wheelthrowing classes have one wheel per student for every class session. All our classes are repeatable, too, so you can come back to do more if you didn't fnish everything that you wanted to the first time. (Class fees apply for each subsequent class you take.)

Our clay classes are all-inclusive: the fee covers instruction and ALL the clay, glaze and firing for the pieces you'll make in class. Additional studio time is included, too, so you can come back and practice between class sessions. Our classroom studio is open during store hours, 9:00am to 5:00pm Monday through Saturday. Studio hours are subject to the class schedule. When another class is meeting, studio time is not available.

At the time of registration for our clay classes we request a $25 deposit and a credit card number to hold your reservation. The $25 deposit will not be refunded if you cancel your registration, but will be applied when you pay the rest of your class fee ($25 + $225 = $250). You will get a registration confirmation in the mail, including the supply list (if any). We normally bill your class fee to your credit card number a day or two before the first class session. If you wish, you may specify when you register that you will pay the class fee by cash or check before the day of the first class session. If you choose to pay by cash or check, please arrive before 5:00 pm on the first class day so we can complete your invoice.

Please, if you must cancel your registration, call or contact us as soon as possible. We have waiting lists for many of our classes, and your early call allows someone else to attend the class. Cancellations less than 10 days before the class date are not refunded.

Georgies' unique series of Monday clay classes are designed for teachers, classroom assistants and parent helpers in K-12 school programs. We created these classes to answer basic questions like "Yikes, clay! What do I do with it?" and "I put this in there and fire it... how?" The class series has grown over the years to include more and more basic skills; each class in the series build on skills you acquired in the previous sessions. These classes are free (with registration and signed confirmation) for teachers, assistants and helpers in K-12 school programs. With all this in mind, we have two requirements for these classes: first, please them in order from 101 to 201 to 301. Second, no more than three people from any one school can attend at any one time because class space is limited. We supply all the equipment and supplies you'll need, and lunch is on us for your class day.

Please note: due to demand and space restrictions, class participants this year must be from regional K-12 school districts. We are sorry, but we can't include pre-K and home school teachers in the free program this year.
