Corporate EVENTS FAQ

Do you offer custom events?

​Our studio is artist owned and run, and we love a creative challenge. Past custom events include carving logo stamps for a team's handbuilt mugs, and making paint from a brand's own tea for a finished piece that now hangs in their conference room. Because custom ideas take extra preparation and materials, they typically add $100–$250, we'll confirm the exact price before you book.

​​

Can we use the space to hold a meeting or presentation?

Yes! You can add meeting time before or after your event for $80 per hour. We do not have AV equipment, but the space has a big white wall that works great for projectors. 

​

Our team is fewer than eight people, is that ok? 

Groups under 8 are welcome; the 8-guest minimum price applies.

Can we bring food and drink? 

You’re welcome to bring refreshments, just make sure you add extra meeting time to your booking to allow time for this. Your party will be responsible for cleanup.

Other Policies: 

  • A 50% deposit is required to secures your date. The remaining balance is due 48 hours before your event.

  • Cancel more than 14 days before your event for a full refund of your deposit, minus credit card processing fees. If you cancel within 14 days of your event, your deposit is non-refundable. The remaining balance is due 48 hours before your event; if you cancel within 48 hours, you are responsible for the full balance.

  • We ask all guests to help tidy up after the event, including any food and drinks. Prefer to skip it? Let us know when booking and we'll handle cleanup for $10 per guest.

  • FOR CLAY EVENTS: Finished pieces will be ready for pickup in 2-3 weeks after your event. While The Studio Fairfield guides participants to create beautiful, successful works of art and carefully glazes and fires all projects with the utmost care, clay is fragile and firing can be unpredictable. Pieces may crack or break, and glazes can yield unexpected results. As with any ceramic project, some items may not survive the firing process.
