new Studio-User intake program

The new studio-user intake program includes a three-phase process designed to ensure new studio-users have the information needed to safely and confidently use the facility. It will also help you understand your responsibilities as a studio-user and how best to contribute in ways that will ensure the health and safety of your fellow artists, as well as the longevity of our beloved facility.
To become a full studio-user, you must be 18 years of age or older and must follow this three-phase process:

PHASE ONE: Fill out a new studio-user application form after:
At least three 8-week courses or 72 hours of instruction at LCAC, and a recommendation from your last instructor that you are ready to transition to using the facility independently. Download the New Studio-user Application in PDF format or in DOC format.
OR
Provide proof of experience with clay in another location – letter of recommendation from a clay artist/administrator, or provide a portfolio of work.
OR
Provide a letter of recommendation from a ceramics teacher at a college or high school such as Sheridan College or Bealart.

PHASE TWO: Attend a mandatory 3-hour training session at LCAC
For a fee of $35 + HST, you will learn what you need to know to become a valuable LCAC studio-user who makes a positive contribution to running the facility.
It is mandatory for all new studio-user applicants to attend a 3-hour training session. Check with the LCAC administrator (form at bottom of this page) for the date of the next training session. If you are unable to attend, you will have to wait until the next intake.
To maintain your skills, please consider taking another class until the next intake.

PHASE THREE: Complete a 4-month probationary period
Complete a 4-month probationary period
After the mandatory training session, you will need to pay a fee to cover your first 4 months and provide a $20 deposit for a key fob that will give you access at LCAC.
During the 4-month probation, other artists and the staff at LCAC can answer your questions and provide guidance to help you become more familiar with the facility and its procedures. Your performance will be assessed with respect to studio hygiene, courteous use of space, following the Global Code of Conduct and COVID-19 policies and procedures, etc.
If you successfully complete the probationary period, you will be eligible to receive full studio-use privileges at LCAC after submitting payment for the remaining months.

To start the application process and be put on the new studio-user waiting list, please the Administrator, using the form below. You will be notified of the next intake period and training session dates.
