Office Hours

RCC is trying out a fun new offering - OFFICE HOURS.
On Monday evenings between 5:00pm-7:00pm, a staff person will be present during open studio time to answer questions. They will even have a demonstration prepared each week during our ten-week session. This offering aims to give Independent Study people and those practicing a place to ask more in-depth questions and grow their clay skills when coming to practice on their own.
