Stewardship & Community Care

All studio members, regardless of membership tier, are expected to contribute to the daily maintenance, cleanliness, and care of the studio. This includes regular studio cleanup, technician support tasks, mopping and member care. The Financial Track is designed for members who prefer not to contribute to drop-in supervision. It does not exempt anyone from general studio stewardship responsibilities.

Tiered Access

At HCS, our Emerging Artist Membership is offered in two tracks: Physical Support and Financial Support. Both provide full access to the ceramics studio, tools, and community benefits. 

The Physical Support Track is for artists who want to contribute time and care — supporting drop-ins, assisting with maintenance, and helping shape the studio culture.

The Financial Support Track is designed for those who prefer to contribute through their membership fees while focusing on their independent practice. We offer both to ensure continued accessibility, shared responsibility, and a vibrant, well-supported space for artists at all stages.
