To keep everyone safe and comfortable, please follow these rules while at the Saskatoon Clayworks studio.

 

What to Wear

• Closed-toe shoes are required at all times in the studio.
• Wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty — clay and glaze can stain.
• Aprons are not provided at the studio; you're welcome to bring your own.

 

Equipment Use

• Pottery wheels and kilns may only be used under instructor supervision. Do not operate this equipment on your own or without permission.
• Follow your instructor's directions for handling tools, glazes, and materials.
• Report any equipment issues, spills, or breakages to a staff member or instructor right away.

 

Food & Drink

• Water and other non-alcoholic drinks are permitted only in capped or closable bottles — no open cups, mugs, or glasses near clay or equipment.
• No food is permitted in the studio at any time.
• No alcohol is permitted on the premises.

 

General Conduct

• Treat instructors, staff, and other participants with respect.
• Do not handle, use, or remove other participants' work or materials without permission.
• Follow instructor guidance at all times, especially around equipment and kiln areas.
• If you feel unwell, get injured, or notice a hazard, tell a staff member immediately.

 

Assumption of Risk

Pottery-making involves inherent risks, including but not limited to the use of sharp tools, moving equipment (such as pottery wheels), and high-heat equipment (such as kilns). By participating in a class, workshop, or event at Saskatoon Clayworks, you acknowledge these risks and agree to follow the safety rules outlined above.
