MEMBERSHIP DETAILS
Joining the Studio Community
We keep our studio intentionally small, so memberships are designed for those who can work independently and help care for our shared space. A short application helps ensure a good fit for both you and the studio community.

Membership Policies
A Shared Creative Space
Forma is a small, intentional studio designed to feel calm, welcoming, and cared for. Membership is more than access to a workspace — it is becoming part of a creative community built around respect, curiosity, and making with intention.
Membership Eligibility
Open Studio memberships are designed for those who are comfortable working independently in a shared ceramics environment. Because our studio is small and community-centered, memberships are offered through an application process to ensure a good fit and preserve the experience for everyone.
If you are newer to clay, we recommend beginning with classes before moving into independent studio membership.
Shared Studio Care
A beautiful studio depends on everyone caring for it together.
Members are asked to:
Clean work areas and equipment after use
Return shared tools and materials to their proper place
Respect shared shelves and communal spaces
Help keep the studio quiet, clean, and welcoming
MEMBERSHIP COMMITMENT & BILLING
New memberships require a 3-month minimum commitment.
Memberships renew automatically on a monthly basis. Membership fees are charged monthly.
To cancel after the initial commitment period, written notice must be provided at least 30 days before your next billing cycle.
CLAY & FIRING
Clay is available for purchase through Forma
Clay purchased through Forma includes glaze and kiln firing — there are no additional firing fees
Outside clay or glazes must be approved by Forma Pottery Studio before use
Work created with unapproved materials may not be fired
EQUIPMENT USE
Members are responsible for proper cleanup and respectful shared use of equipment.
Misuse of equipment may result in suspension of privileges.
Kilns & Finished Work
Ceramics can be unpredictable, and while every effort is made to handle work carefully, Forma cannot guarantee outcomes in the kiln. Cracking, warping, glaze variation, or breakage can naturally occur during the firing process.
STORAGE
Membership includes designated storage space for work in progress and personal items. Because space is limited, members are asked to work thoughtfully and regularly rotate completed work out of the studio.
Community Expectations
Forma is rooted in creativity, kindness, and respect. We want this to feel like a place people return to — where faces become familiar and making becomes part of your rhythm.
Harassment, unsafe behavior, or conduct that negatively impacts the experience of others may result in membership suspension or cancellation.
