Your Membership Journey at The Innovation Hub

Where are you on your path to becoming a Hub member? Start by scheduling a tour to explore our space. Get a taste of our studios with a Try It! Class, then dive deeper with an in-depth course designed to build your skills and provide the safety training needed for Independent Studio Use. When ready, review the Studio Specific policies and take the Pottery Studio Assessment to demonstrate your knowledge. Need more practice? We’ll guide you to additional classes or private lessons to fill any gaps. Once you pass, you’ll gain full access to our studios, reserving workstations and refining your craft at your own pace!

Independent Studio Use

To use the Ceramic Studio and equipment independently, you must complete the two-part Ceramic Studio Assessment. This process ensures that Hub members are familiar with studio policies and can use the equipment safely. The first part of the Assessment is an online quiz, and the second part is an in-person portion that varies by studio. The in-person portion may include a skills check, studio orientation, reviewing your quiz responses, or other activities. There are three total assessments available for the Ceramics Studio: the General Studio Assessment, the Dip Glaze Assessment, and the Glaze Testing Assessment, which follows the Glaze Chemistry Class.
