Membership Studio

The members' studio is the perfect solution for ceramics enthusiasts to have a space to work without the commitment of expensive equipment and space. Only 4 spaces left!

BENEFITS: 

1. 24/7 access. The space is limited to 4 members working at one time.
2.  Multiple bisque and glaze firings each week. Because I am a production potter I fire often which is a bonus for members looking for quicker turnover of work. I do not charge extra for firings.
3. Access to over two dozen glazes (cone 5/6), slips, multiple tools, slump molds and a slab roller
4. Ample table space for work.
5. One shelf space plus community shelf shared space. Members have a designated shelf for clay to help save on space. 
6. Access to 4 electric pottery wheels for left or right handed artists. 
7. $205/month. $190/month w a 3 month commitment. The only additional cost is clay at $24-35 a bag based on which type of clay you choose. No outside clay is permitted.
8. Members are allowed to sell work during the shows at the Screw Factory for a small fee.

REQUIREMENTS: 

1. You must apply below and show a minimum of one year experience working in clay. Whether you consider yourself an artist or hobbyist all are welcome.

2. There is no instruction so you must work independently and understand the basics of working in a clay studio in a group setting. Space is limited to 25 members per month. 

3. The studio is for adults 18 and older for safety reasons. 

4. Members rent is due on the 5th of each month. All members must cancel by the 15th of the month prior to ending their membership. All fees are collected via online invoice. 

5. Members are responsible for keeping the space clean and safe. This includes equipment, tables and light mopping around your work area. The staff at my studio shop vacs to keep the studio clean and dust free.

6. All clay used must be purchased through Gina DeSantis Ceramics. Students are allowed to use their own cone 5/6 glazes. 

Please email ginadesantisceramics@gmail.com 5-8 images of your artwork as well. Members must be courteous to fellow members and understand no instruction is provided nor is this meant to be a production studio for individuals. You must understand how a community clay studio functions.
