The Summer Drop-In Pottery is only available to students who have been enrolled in a Garrison Art Center adult pottery class in 2024 or 2025. 

Summer Pottery is back again!

How does it work?

Summer Drop-In Pottery allows you to attend 4, 6, or 8 of our drop-in pottery classes this summer, taught by one of GAC’s Pottery teaching artists. Each class is 3 hours long, and 3 different time slots are available each week.

When does it start?

Summer drop-in pottery classes will begin June 30 and run through August 21. There will be a short break before our regular fall classes start in early September.

What times/days are available?

There are 3 class times a week: Sundays 2:00pm-5:00pm, Mondays 6:00pm-9:00pm, and Thursdays 6:30pm - 9:30pm.

Do I have to come on the same day/time each week?

No! You can sign up for multiple classes in the same week, and skip a week (or more!) whenever you like. 

How do I schedule my classes?

Lisa will be handling the scheduling. Once you have purchased your Summer Drop-In Pottery classes, contact lisa@garrisonartcenter.org with which days/times you would like to come. We will be limiting the number of people in each class, so you must sign up ahead of time for the days you want to attend. 

We cannot accommodate students who show up without signing up first.

4 classes isn’t enough for me! Can I sign up for more?

Sure! Feel free to sign up for as many Summer Drop-In Pottery classes as you like. We have 6 and 8 class passes available as well. 

Can anyone sign up for Summer Drop-In Pottery and use the studio?

The Summer Pottery Pass is only available to students who have been enrolled in a Garrison Art Center adult pottery class in 2024 or 2025.
