PRICING
At Neighbourhood, we use a solidarity pricing system in order to promote equity and diversity and increase access to pottery as a craft. At checkout, you will have the choice of 3 prices for this course. Please choose either 'Low Income' for £180, 'Standard' for £200, or 'Pay it Forward' for £220 based on your personal circumstances. The 'Pay it Forward' price helps us subsidise the low income spaces.

FINISHED WORK

WHAT TO WEAR
Clay and glaze both rinse out of clothes very easily, but wear something you don't mind getting a bit messy in. Also, please bring an apron if you have one. If not, we have spare ones you can use.
