Registration for the Spring classes opened at 6PM on Monday 3/28. Classes will sell out fast, it is recommended you use Google or Apple Pay to purchase the class to reduce the risk the class sells out while you are entering your information. Just having the class in your cart does not secure your spot - the transaction must be completed. Students from the Winter session and Members do get advance access to register since working with clay is a skill that takes a long time to develop, so some classes are already partially full before classes open to the public.  I am so sorry we cannot fit in everyone who wants to take a class, but we are at maximum capacity for storage space for work in progress and volume of pieces we can keep up with getting through the kilns. 

If the class you wanted is sold out, you are welcome to join the waiting list for this session. If you do get into a class but a different class would work better for your schedule you are also welcome to specify that in the waiting list. Space opening in a class does require someone to drop out, which does happen sometimes.
