Studio Information and Policies
When you become a student at Fairview, you become a joint-custodian of our shared space.
You are responsible for cleaning up your work area, your wheel, and the glazing tables after use, and for making sure your work and your clay is stored on your shelf.
Fairview Studios rely on students taking care and ownership of the studio.
