Terms of Service

Last updated: January 1, 2025

Class Registration and Payment

Registration for pottery classes requires full payment at time of booking. We accept cash, check, and major credit cards. Class fees include instruction, basic materials, and initial firing. Additional materials or specialized glazes may incur extra charges.

Cancellation Policy

Students may cancel class registration with the following conditions:

  • 48 hours or more before class start: Full refund minus $25 processing fee
  • 24-48 hours before class: 50% refund
  • Less than 24 hours: No refund, but credit toward future class
  • No-shows: No refund or credit

Studio Safety and Conduct

All students must follow studio safety guidelines:

  • Closed-toe shoes required at all times
  • Long hair must be tied back when using pottery wheels
  • No food or drinks near clay work areas
  • Children under 16 must be supervised by an adult
  • Respectful behavior toward instructors and fellow students

Liability and Insurance

Students participate in pottery classes at their own risk. Country Connection Ceramics maintains general liability insurance but is not responsible for personal injury or damage to personal property. Students are encouraged to have their own health insurance coverage.

Pottery and Materials

Finished pottery pieces must be picked up within 60 days of completion. Unclaimed pieces become property of the studio. We are not responsible for pieces damaged during the firing process, as this is an inherent risk in ceramics.

Photography and Marketing

By participating in classes, students consent to photography of their work and classroom activities for marketing purposes. Personal information will not be shared without explicit consent.
