Workshop SLC caters to all levels. From one day classes to intro and foundation semesters, beginners can hone on their skills in a variety of ways. Ready for the next level? We have foundation 2 classes, memberships and weekend workshops with top tier artists from across the country.

While our classes also cater to a variety of ages, we do ask our students to be at least 13 years or older to attend on their own. For live figure drawing classes, students must be 18 years older or have an emailed note from a guardian that they are allowed to attend the class due to some classes using nude models.

But don’t fret! We offer kid specific classes geared more towards our younger students ages 7 to 12. Take a look at those classes here!

Class prices vary depending on the specific class. Our drop in classes and most date nights range between $50 to $65. Generally, our longer classes like our 6 to 8 week semesters are lower per class costs.

Our goal is to host workshops at a capacity that makes sense for our staff and classroom usage. If that’s not possible, we will need to look to move or potentially cancel the class. If that has to happen, you’ll receive a message from our team about options for new dates or other classes. We are committed to working with you on a solution. If we can’t find one, you will be refunded for your class and given a 10% off coupon for the next time you can join us. Thank you for working with us!

We love seeing people buy a class for a friend or family member. Once you've bought the class, you can give us a call/head into Sawyer and easily transfer it to another person. Make sure the timing works, but all classes, workshops and punch passes can be transferred. Let us know if we can help!

To make sure our classes and workshops have people attending, we adhere to a cancellation policy depending on the class type. We do our best to work with our students, but our priority is to make sure everyone that wants to attend the classes can.

While many of our fine art classes are designed to be accessible on a drop-in basis, it is required that students sign up on our website beforehand. Space in our classes is limited, and pre-registration ensures that you secure a spot. Unfortunately, we do not accept walk-ins due to space constraints.

Yes, you can sign up for a private event at our, such as art parties or workshops. We also offer private events onsight at a specific location if that works better for your group. In most cases, we ask for a 10 student minimum for us to host the event. Read more about it here and reach out!

At our art studio, we have a policy that allows only dogs owned by management to be on the premises. This policy has been established to maintain a controlled and safe environment for our artists, staff, and clients. While we appreciate the positive influence dogs can have, this restriction helps us strike a balance between a pet-friendly atmosphere and ensuring the comfort and focus of everyone in our studio. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in adhering to this policy.

To make sure our pieces and our kiln are safe, we ask all students and members to use our clay. Students taking one night or semester classes will be provided clay. All members are asked to buy clay from us. We have a variety available that all will work well with our kiln.

All students will be provided tools for class. Students taking multi week classes will be given a set for the entire semester. We also have tools for purchase, either new sets or your set that you used. Members will also have access to sets for purchase, but we ask members to keep their tools on their shelf or with them.

We do offer glazes and underglazes accessible to our students and members. If you take a one day workshop, our staff will glaze your piece for you.

We will run all pieces for students and members. Please make sure you have your pieces on the bisque or glaze shelves in the kiln room and our staff will handle the rest. As a member, make sure you’re meeting your required amount per month.

We’ll store pieces from classes in the space to dry and be picked up at the next class. If you’re a member, you’ll have storage space available to you. All over members should bring their pieces home with them when they are complete.
