🌀 Masks are required inside the studio for communal safety 🌀
To help keep our space safe, masks (N95 or KN95) are required for all workshops. Please bring your own—extras are available at the studio. Masks protect against airborne illness as well as clay and glaze dust.
Our property is ADA accessible, with a ramp available for the bathroom (3 steps). On-site parking and other accommodations are available—email us with any needs: info@sooki.studio.
Sliding scale pricing is a tool for social equity. We use sliding scale pricing to make ceramics education accessible and affordable.
There are three tiers for pricing, when signing up for a workshop, please pay on the scale what feels right to you and your current finances. This is a trust based system, only you will know what feels comfortable and possible.
The high end of the scale is the true cost. If you are someone who can afford to pay this, please do, as this offsets the price for others, allowing us to create more affordable offerings.
There are a set amount of spaces available per tier to ensure that the scale is balanced and workshop costs are covered. If a tier is sold out it means that all those spots have been spoken for. An interest free payment plan is available for all workshops, breaking the workshop cost down to smaller payments over a longer period of time.
We do our best to ensure workshops are accessible and affordable. We are continuously improving our pricing system, please reach out if you have any questions or ideas you'd like to share.
Workshops are non-refundable, but you may transfer your spot to someone else—just let us know in advance.
Students receive open studio access during their workshop, Thursday–Monday from 11am to 8pm, plus a 10% discount at Sooki Supply.

Plenazo Tribe is a vibrant collective of musicians, dancers and culture bearers bringing the soulful rhythms of Puerto Rico’s plena to life in the heart of Los Angeles.
Born from the vibrant streets of Los Angeles but deeply rooted in the heart of Puerto Rico, Plenazo Tribe is more than a band—it’s a movement. With rhythms that pulse with tradition and a sound that speaks to the modern era, this collective of global musicians has redefined Plena, bringing it to audiences far and wide.
What started as a passion project in a North Hollywood restaurant has grown into a powerhouse of energy and sound. With members hailing from Puerto Rico, France, Argentina, Ecuador, Peru, Mexico and California, Plenazo Tribe embodies cultural fusion at its finest.
Their debut single, "Ritmo de la Plena," marks the beginning of an exciting journey, blending classic Afro-Caribbean rhythms with contemporary production. And this is just the start—more music is on the horizon, promising to keep the fire of Plena alive and thriving in the modern world.
