When can I pick up my pottery piece?
Pieces are available between two and three weeks after a class. Each piece is dried for a minimum of ten days before being fired for 8-12 hours. Pieces are then cooled for 12-24 hours, glazed and then fired again for another 8 hours and cooled for 12-24 hours. Because of this, the minimum time required is two to three weeks.
When you receive notification that your piece is ready for pick up, please call or text 352-322-0366 to arrange a pick up time. We are by appointment and not open regular business hours. You may come pick up your piece during any scheduled class as well. Please see the homepage for the calendar showing scheduled classes.
