Local delivery is available for Mill Valley, Corte Madera, San Rafael, San Anselmo, Terra Linda, and Novato. If you don’t live in these cities we can ship your supplies for an additional $10 or you may pick up in Novato or San Rafael studios. This workshop uses clay that needs to be fired. For those reasons, if you do not have access to a kiln please send us an email and we can discuss other options for you, studio4artmarin@gmail.com
