Write to the Studio

Every seat on a wheel course, every taster evening and every shelf in the kilns at Clyaris is booked the same way: by writing to the studio. Della reads each letter herself and answers with a term date and a deposit request, or a kiln slot and a drop-off window.

The only way to book

hello@clyaris.com

For a course, name the course and the term you want. For the kilns, name the kiln, the cone and how many half shelves you need.

Hours

Opening Hours and Kiln Windows

The room is shut on Sunday and Monday so the kilns can fire and cool undisturbed. Work comes in and goes out only in the windows below.

Place

Asheville, North Carolina

The full studio location is sent with a confirmed booking, together with the door to use and where to set work down on the drop-off shelf.

There is no collection and no delivery. Bone-dry work comes in through the studio door and fired work leaves the same way, and the wheels never leave the room. If you want to see the room before you book, the studio page has the plan of it.

Prices are set out in full on the wheel courses page and the firing specification.
