Artisan Class Plans

Below you will find the NWTC Artisan Center's Class Policies and Class Plans for the regularly offered courses! Please note, all Class Plans are subject to change. 

General Policies

  • Students must sign in each day that they enter the studios. This includes brief stops to check the status of items.

Picking Up Completed Work

The Artisan and Business Center guarantees that work created in class will be held for two weeks following the last day of instruction. After that, ABC staff may dispose of projects. If you know you will be unable to make it to the ABC in that time frame, please arrange an extended pick-up window with office staff in person or by emailing artisan.center@nwtc.edu


Class Bonus Time

Class Bonus Time is additional time to work in the studio outside of class hours and it is available to students who are currently enrolled in ceramics classes and pyrography classes. Class Bonus Time is available for the weeks the class is scheduled as well as one week after the class ends to help wrap up any projects. There is no cost to utilize Class Bonus Time, but all participants must sign-in at the lobby.
