As a pottery studio member, you'll find that Throw Clay LA offers a welcoming and creative environment with numerous benefits. A studio membership offers a unique blend of creative, social, and skill-building opportunities that are both fulfilling and fun.

​

Requirements:​

• Members need to have previous pottery experience and be able to work as a pottery studio member independently. This means they have the ability to make, trim, and glaze without needing any instruction. (If you don't have experience, sign up for a six-week course and we'll teach you how!)

• If you are over 18, we look forward to talking with you about becoming a pottery studio member at Throw Clay LA. 
   

Pricing:

We offer two pricing options based on shelf location: $175 or $195 per month. Additionally, we charge a glaze firing fee of $1 per pound for pieces under 14", which is assessed when your piece is "kiln ready" for glaze firing. Pieces over 14" are fired at $2 per pound. Bisque firing is free.
