Studio Etiquette
Welcome to Lantau Pottery Studio!
I'd like to take a moment to introduce you to our studio etiquette. These guidelines help us maintain a respectful and considerate environment that fosters creativity and learning for everyone.
Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with our policies, which cover topics such as safety, cleanliness, and respect for shared tools and materials.
-Treat the people, studio, and equipment with care and respect
-Help each other out, do not offer criticism unless it is asked for
-Be considerate of others' work, do not touch or move work that does not belong to you
-After use, everything needs to be cleaned and returned to its correct place.
-Clean as you go, always wipe with a clean wrung-out sponge/cloth
-If you are done in one area, do not move to another without cleaning up first
-After you are done on the wheel, clean wheel, splash pan, table, chair, and water bucket
-Place clay scraps & slip in the reclaim bucket; nothing from the floor or sink goes in the reclaim bucket. Put it in the trash instead.
-Rinse out any sponges you’ve used and put them away clean
-Make sure to label all of your personal tools with a marker
-Make sure ALL personal projects and greenware are labeled
-Annual studio purges occur, and everything must be taken home during a purge
-Any green-ware that has been untouched for over 60 days will be reclaimed.
-Any bisque-ware that has not been glazed within 60 days after firing will be discarded.
-Glaze-ware that has not been claimed within 6 months after firing will be discarded.
-The studio is not responsible for pieces that break during the firing process
