Private Lessons

If a weekly class doesn’t suit your schedule, consider a Private Lesson. Whether you have some experience or are starting fresh, lessons can be a great way to re-connect to your clay practice and learn MCP's studio flow. Each lesson is tailored to your needs, interests, and skill level. Lesson start times are typically scheduled Monday-Saturday, 10am-4pm, however, we can accommodate some evening hours as well. Email works best to schedule lessons. Individual Adult Lessons are $50 for 75 minutes of hands-on instruction ($40 per person for 2-4 people). Child Lessons (16 or under) are $35 for 60 minutes. One finished piece included, $5-15 per additional piece (size dependent).
