Workshop Registration Information & Policies

 

Our Workshop Schedule:

  • Workshops and demos are publicized as visiting artists are confirmed, usually several months in advance of the actual workshop dates. You can find the latest workshop and demo information on our website HERE.

  • Exact dates for registration are announced on our website and through our Events Newsletter — sign up HERE. (We send 1-2 Events Newsletters a month — we promise we won’t bombard you!)

Registering for Workshops & Demos:

  • When to register: Registration opens on a staggered schedule. Potters’ Studio Members and current Students can sign up a week before general public registration opens.

  • How to register: Register for a workshop or demo by sending an email to events@berkeleypottersstudio.org.

  • How to pay: To complete registration for a workshop or demo, you must have an account with The Potters’ Studio. Create an account HERE.

  • You must register + receive an email confirmation from events@berkeleypottersstudio.org + pay in full before attending.

  • Payment must be received in full no later than two weeks before the first day of a workshop or demo.

  • Members taking advantage of autopay (sign up HERE) will be invoiced in the month of registration for a workshop or demo.

  • Workshops and demos fill up quickly! We recommend emailing to register as early as possible after the registration opens.

 Workshop Cancellation Policy:

  • All notices of workshop cancellation incur a $25 processing fee and must be received via email (events@berkeleypottersstudio.org) by 5pm one week + one business day prior to the schedule first day.

    • For workshops starting on a Friday, written notice of cancellation must be received by 5pm Wednesday the prior week

    • For workshops starting on a Saturday, written notice of cancellation must be received by 5pm Thursday the prior week

Cancellation by The Potters’ Studio:

  • If The Potters’ Studio must cancel a workshop or demo for any reason, students will be notified as soon as possible and The Potters’ Studio will provide a full refund.

Waitlists for Workshops & Demos:

  • We maintain a running waitlist for all workshops and demos that sell out — everyone asking to sign up is automatically added to the waitlist once a workshop or demo is full. If spaces open up, we will contact people on the waitlist in the order they emailed asking to join a workshop or demo.

  • To receive the Studio discount, Members must retain their membership status for the duration of their workshop and Students must be enrolled in a class when the workshop takes place.

Missed Workshops or Demos:

  • The Potters’ Studio is not responsible for missed workshops and demos and does not offer reimbursements, credit, or make-up workshops or demos due to illness or other events beyond our control.
