Question 1

Can beginners join the a classes at MudAndEasel?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Most of our classes are designed for complete beginners. Instructors break down the process into multiple steps to make it as accessible as possible.

Question 2

What should I bring to class?

Accepted Answer

Please bring:
A hand towel (the studio does not provide paper towels or hand towels).
An apron (if you prefer).
A water bottle or anything else you may need.

For certain classes, instructors may ask you to bring texture materials or specific tools—please read the class description carefully and check your email for any additional instructions.

Question 3

The success of your pieces

Accepted Answer

Pottery is a fun and rewarding craft, but it also takes patience and practice. As you learn, pieces may break during the making process, and sometimes we lose pieces during firing.
We do our best to guide and teach you, but pottery is a delicate art, and outcomes can be unpredictable.
Even with proper technique, pieces may crack or break in the kiln due to factors beyond anyone’s control.
Following instructor guidance helps improve your chances of success, but we cannot guarantee that every piece will make it through the process.
Your payment covers the experience of the class, not a guaranteed finished piece. If your piece is lost or damaged, we won’t be able to replace it or offer accommodations. We appreciate your understanding and hope you enjoy the creative journey!

Question 4

Picking up your pieces

Accepted Answer

We will email you with specific pickup times. If those times don’t work, the studio will offer additional pickup times the following week, depending on availability. If none of those options work, please arrange for someone else to pick up your pieces.
The studio can only store your pieces for up to 2 months from the date of your class.
If you miss our email and it has been more than 2 months, your piece will no longer be available.
