FAQs

CBTB offers classes suitable for ALL skill levels. If you have never touched clay, or it's been so long you'd like to have a full refresh, consider one of our INTRO CLASSES that will walk you through every step of the process. These are 6-week or 1-time lessons you can choose to fit your schedule! If you have more background in creating on the wheel or by hand, give one of our INTERMEDIATE / ADVANCED classes a shot to push your skill level further and explore more ways to clay. You could also sign up for our MONTHLY MEMBERSHIP option and pursue ceramics on your own schedule, 7-days a week!

This happens all the time! No problem, we have a pretty flexible makeup policy. Simply call or email the studio and we will help you find another class time to attend and makeup the instruction you missed! (we cannot guarantee this). The open studio hours are also a great way to make up the work from any missed classes. See more about our policies HERE

Every 6-week class meets for 2.5 hours of instructor-led class time each week. You will meet for 6 weeks at your chosen time, but have full access to the studio during open-studio hours to practice and create (10am-6pm)

You'll be able to make at least 2 items during each class, and many more if you get the hang of it! Depending on the class you might make different things - cups, vases, bowls, planters, dishes, and so much more!

Memberships renew every month and will give you full access to the studio, plus special perks like designated wheels & tables, extended open-studio hours, special discounts & parties, and more!
