If you're experienced enough to go ahead with your projects and you just need studio time to finish the work you started in class or to do your art, this open studio time is for you.  Open Studio is for current and former students that have taken ClayArt West classes before. Current students do not need to sign up online.  Just let Emilie know you will be attending. Open Studio participants must have taken a class already and learned basic skills, safe equipment use and know where everything they need might be located in the ClayArt studio. The $125 online registration for 5 sessions is for former students not currently enrolled in a ClayArtWest class. As you register for the class you'll have the option to change it to 10 classes for $250.  At the first open studio visit, students purchase a Clay kit which includes 25 lbs clay, studio glazes, and firing for $50.00.  You don't have to use all 5 sessions in a month.  They're good at any Wednesday night open studio going forward.
