or a 50 percent credit will be refunded.

Students may change their class schedule based on the availability of classes.
Students have to arrive and leave the studio on time.
Please be prompt. If late, your lesson will still end at the usual time. You are not allowed to work after the designated hours.
Adults' projects are limited to 12" in any direction.
After learning basic forming techniques, students can make their own thematic and aesthetic choices. We encourage students to
discuss their projects with the instructor in advance. Adults are allowed to work on larger projects for several sessions.
If there are any special needs (extra working time or scheduling of firing), student should give the instructor a timely notice
and discuss the extra fees that will occur.
Finished projects.
Students may able to pick up their kiln fired projects after two weeks, and all of the pieces have to be picked up within
60 days. All pieces kept in our location for over 60 days, we may dispose them without a notice. We claim no responsibility
for any damage to students' work in the studio or during the firing.
Safety Issue:
All of the students have to follow the instructions during the classes. No playing around with clay or clay tools. Never
waste materials. Never place any tools on the wheel head when it not in use.
All of the materials we used in the studio are ones that meet the standard of the US and are washable.
