Membership in the Ceramic Arts Club - and How to Join

*

CAC MEMBERSHIP:

The cost of membership in the Rossmoor Ceramic Arts Club is $15 per year, with an (optional) additional charge of $15 per year for a locker (see section below for information about requirements for joining the club). All active members of our club are asked to volunteer for one or more jobs in the studio, as the dues alone do not cover our operating expenses (and we do not pay for outside help with the tasks involved in the everyday running of the studio).

Our members must renew each year by paying dues (and locker fees) in the month of January. A roster of CAC members is printed each year and distributed (free) to all members.

The Rossmoor Ceramic Arts Club currently has approximately 190 members of ages ranging from 55 to over 90.  Their abilities in ceramics range from beginners to very experienced potters and sculptors.  Our members generally work on their own or in small groups.  Some active members may work only a few days a year, while others might work in our studio almost every day.

HOW TO JOIN CAC:

It is required to be a Rossmoor resident and to take an Orientation Class in order to join the Rossmoor Ceramic Arts Club. Each Orientation Class consists of four sessions (4 hours each). These classes are offered two or more times each year, at a cost of $30 per person.  Everyone who takes an Orientation Class is provided with a small set of tools, a supply of clay and a booklet about the club's procedures, rules, etc. Participants learn the basics of working with clay as well as the layout and functions of all areas of the CAC Studio. After this class has been completed, each participant may then join the Rossmoor Ceramic Arts Club and have access to all club activities. For information about when future Orientation Classes will be offered, click on the Events tab above. (There is always information about classes and other CAC events in the Rossmoor News as well - check the current issue.)
