​

We can answer questions but please remember The Nest DiY studio is NON-Instructional and anyone needing excessive assistance will be recommended to take a class with an instructor.  Please bear this in mind when booking time in The Nest. 

​

The Nest is a creative space designed for adults, however we can accommodate children ages 10-16 with an adult.

Please check the schedule carefully for the age designation for the session you are choosing.

We have adults only "Crafty Hour" available. 

Please see The Nest booking policy before booking.

While pottery making can be a cruel mistress, we will help ensure that your creations are kiln ready before you leave.

Anyone not following instructions while building risks not only their piece failing but possibly damaging others' work.

We cannot accommodate requests to create more advanced or intricate projects during DiY time.
