GUESTS

Guest Policy
Mill Pond Ceramics Studio allows members and studio tenants to host guests to work in the studio on a limited basis. Students taking multi-week classes may not host working guests in the studio but are welcome to bring visitors such as friends and family for brief studio tours.

Guest Guidelines

• Guests are only allowed with express permission from studio management.

• Guests must be accompanied at all times by the member hosting them.

• The member-host is responsible and liable for their guest to the same terms in the member’s membership agreement.

• Guests are not allowed when classes are in session.

Guest Services

• Only studio-approved clay may be used and must be provided by the member.

• Work must be signed by the guest, not the member.

• Guest work-in-process (i.e. wet work) must be contained on the member’s shelf.

• Guest work to be fired, either bisque or glaze, must be marked on a ware board with the Member and Guest’s name.  

• Guest work firing will be charged as follows:

  • Bisque firing .05 cents per cubic inch

  • Glaze firing .10 cents per cubic inch

  • Oversize fee of $10 applies to any piece over 12” in any direction

Guest Pricing and Payment

• The guest rate is $20/hr. with a one-hour minimum and access. Payment must be made prior to guest’s visit via the item on this page.

• Guest firing billing is separate and payable via Venmo or in-person with staff. Payment must be made in advance prior to firing and/or glazing.

If a member fails to follow any of the terms above, their membership may be terminated.
