Please only purchase clay from ASLD, unless approved by the studio manager. No low-fire clays may be used at ASLD.

Community tools are available for student use, in exception of a small sponge. If you prefer personal tools, a basic ceramics tool kit, small sponges and large clean up sponges are available for purchase at the Registration Office.
