Do you ship?

No, we don't ship pottery, but we have access to a great place that does!  If you leave us with your VISA or MasterCard information (and we're VERY discreet about this), when your pottery has been fired we will bring it to The Parcel Center in Westerly RI.  The Parcel Center will wrap and ship your pottery within the next day or two.  We've been using The Parcel Center for almost 10 years, and in all that time, only one piece arrived broken!

 

Will you come to our school?

No, but please check out our Tiles-To-Go option.

Do I need to wear old "painting" clothes?

We have aprons available for your use, but all our glazes will wash right off you and right out of clothing in the laundry. 

 

Are the paints safe for kids?

All our glazes are LEAD-FREE, non-toxic and food safe.

Really! Safe for babies!

What about parking?

There is 2-hour on-street parking in front of the studio.  There is plenty of free, no-limit parking in lots around the corner from the studio, on Coggswell Street. 

 

Can I bring in my coffee?

Sure!  You're always welcome to bring a snack and the beverage of your choice.

 

Are you handicapped-accessible?

YES!

 

How long does it take?

Depnds on the age of the painter, and how detail-oriented they are.  You can make a simple (but beautiful) sponge-painted piece in about 15 minutes.  If you have a more complex design in mind, it may take an hour or two. 

Especially for your first visit, plan on about 2 hours; it will take you a little time to choose a piece from the hundreds available.

What if I don't finish my piece in one visit?

We'll wrap it up for you to take home.  Bring it back in to complete at your convenience.  A "finishing" studio fee of $5 will be charged.  If you begin a new piece on a "finishing" visit, the regular ($9/adult) studio fee will be charged INSTEAD of the finishing fee.
