Open studios
Open studio sessions are independent practice times for those who’ve taken at least two workshops with Ipek so they know the rules of the studio, how to clean up after themselves and can work on their own with minimal support.
These sessions can be used for wheel-throwing and trimming, hand-building or glazing; and last 3 hours excluding the clean up time. The sessions take place on Wednesday evenings and Saturdays morning/early afternoons, 6-8 times a month.
If you have a question or need a little help during an open studio session, either Ipek or someone trained by Ipek is always present in the session to help you out.
You may buy your open studio packages below.
Upon payment, you can download your invoice and will receive your unique booking code for the online reservation system so you can schedule your sessions online.

"I decided to take private and semi-private courses with Ipek after 2 years of weekly courses (on the wheel) in other studios. There are no words to express how grateful I am that I decided to follow these workshops! I'm looking forward to the rest of our lessons :)"

"Ipek’s passion for her craft is very infectious. I particularly liked that she gives her students so much freedom - Ipek does not impose her choices onto us. I loved the ambience of the studio, and how I could spend three whole hours there completely at peace and not realizing time had passed."
