No previous classes are required for this course.

*COVID NOTE: Due to the close physical proximity of students and instructors, students in hot glass and pottery classes will need to show proof of vaccination. Following New Jersey State’s definition, people are considered “fully vaccinated” for COVID-19 two weeks after receiving the second dose in a two-dose series or two weeks after receiving a single-dose vaccine, and any booster doses for which they are eligible as recommended by the CDC. Instructors and students are also strongly encouraged to wear masks; however, it is not required.
