CARBONDALE CLAY CENTER
STUDIO CODE OF CONDUCT
Conduct is the cornerstone upon which we are building our culture here at CARBONDALE CLAY CENTER. All who enter our doors we consider an immediate participant, & CCC expects everyone to demonstrate a willingness to adhere to our fundamental guidelines
We exist cohesively as a vibrant community of people who have a high regard for each other, arts enrichment, and the value of the work we do. In correlation we believe that ethics – moral principles, standard practices, and even etiquette – are important elements we look to instill & impart in our Patron & Guest experience.
