Ann Arbor Potters Guild Student Information
2011-2012 Schedule

We offer evening classes to the adult community, taught by experienced professional artists. Our goal is to create a stimulating learning environment for those people who share our love of artistic expression in clay.

Schedule
Semesters begin in September and January and last 14 weeks. Classes are scheduled for one evening per week for three hours (7:00-10:00). There are two separate class groups, each with 15 students. Students are allowed to work at the guild outside of class hours up to 21 hours per week. Lab hours will be set each semester and remain consistant throughout the semester.

Wait List
There is a wait list for Potters Guild classes of about one year. It is very helpful to have basic pottery skills and some experience to fully benefit from instruction at the Guild. While one is waiting for a position in a Potters Guild class, we suggest enrolling in other pottery classes from organizations such as the Ann Arbor Art Center, Kay Yourist in Ann Arbor, or Two Twelve Arts Center in Saline, the Village Potters Guild in Plymouth, the Greater Lansing Potters Guild, or Pewabic Pottery in Detroit.

Fees
The current fee for classes is $340 per semester (fees are subject to change without notice.) This includes not only instruction but clay, glaze materials, kiln firing space and scheduled lab hours.

How to Apply
If you are interested in taking classes, please come by the Guild to talk with a member and see our facilities. At that time, you can fill out an application indicating your ceramic interests and experience. For your convenience, you may print this application and bring it with you. Your completed application will be placed on file with the registrar in the order that it was received. When an opening becomes available, you will be notified.
