    Implementing a policy where booking fees are transferable but non-refundable for out-of-hours events is a strategic approach to ensure the sustainability of such events. This policy underscores the importance of staffing, which is a critical component for the success of any event. By staffing according to the number of bookings, event organizers can efficiently allocate resources, ensuring that each event is well-managed and enjoyable for all attendees. Moreover, the transferability of booking fees offers flexibility, allowing participants to pass on their booking to someone else if they cannot attend, thus maintaining the event's viability and attendee satisfaction.
  • How much does it cost?
    All our ceramics are individually priced, starting from $6 for a small item like a pendant, $15 for medium plates and bowls and larger items up to $100. CMP also charges a $10 studio fee per person per day. The fee covers the cost of the paints, stickers, sponges, brushes and glaze and firing of your pieces. This fee applied to all people including non-painters.
