Develop your ceramic practice in a professional environment
Studio Membership · Independent practice in a ceramic studio
Studio Membership
What to expect
- The Studio Membership is designed for experienced ceramists who wish to develop their own projects in a professional, quiet, and inspiring work environment.
- This format allows you to work with consistency and autonomy, utilizing the studio’s full facilities and available tools. This is not an instructor-led class, but a space for personal practice focused on production, artistic research, and technical development.
- Please note that instructor presence is not guaranteed during these sessions. If an instructor is present in the studio, they will be focused on their own artistic work.
- Materials and firing costs are not included in the monthly fee; they are calculated once your pieces are finished, based on their volume and the specific firing required.
What you can do:
- Develop your own ceramic projects with autonomy.
- Work with the electric wheel and hand-building techniques.
- Organize production processes and create series.
- Experiment with forms, volumes, and finishes.
- Request technical or conceptual guidance through occasional private tutorials.
Schedule (choose between):
- Mondays or Wednesdays from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM.
