Open Pottery Studio is offered to individuals who have attended private lessons, classes or have prior pottery experience. We cannot provide instruction during open studio hours - only minimal tips and tricks or comments. If you need assistance on the wheel you will have to take a workshop or schedule a private lesson.
(2) Hour Open studio session is $25 and includes approximately 4 pounds of clay. Prepping your clay, setting up & clean up is part of the wheel time. Materials, Supplies, Tools and Equipment are included.
Additional Split Rock Stoneware Cone 6 Clay is sold for $2.00 per pound.
Bisque and Glaze Firing is $8.00 (cash or check payable to Deep Green Machine) for a “coffee cup sized piece.” Volunteer Studio Team will glaze and fire your creation to make it food-microwave-dishwasher safe. Completed works are typically returned in 4-8 weeks depending on kiln availability.
Studio volunteers will trim and glaze your work.
What to wear: Participants must wear closed toed shoes for safety and ceramic wheel students should wear clothes they do not mind getting messy.

About Studio Monitor Jessi Tucci
Jessi Tucci has been working with clay for 15 years.
She had found a wheel in the back of her high school's ceramic room and begged her teacher to use it. With too many students in one class she had to stay after school hours to play around on the wheel.
It was an immediate addiction.
Restless after high school Jessi moved around the country and every semester, at every college Jessi took a ceramic class, even after she had way too many art credits. Functional pottery is her passion.
