This may be paid in cash or by check, bags of clay may be shared. - Bring your pottery tools if you have some, or kits are available for ~$20.00 in the clay studio, or at retailers such as CC Lowel or Michaels. - If you have any old hand towels, bring a couple for drying your hands, as this will help us all be a little greener and not use paper towels. - Have FUN!
