Our Membership Program is central to our mission to foster creativity, access, and lifelong learning for people of all backgrounds. In 2024, we served 380 active members.Membership includes 24/7 studio access (after a one-month trial period) and use of extensive resources, including throwing wheels, hand-building spaces, slab rollers, a damp room, kilns, a well-ventilated glaze lab, and a ceramics reference library. Members receive free training on firing procedures, glaze mixing, and safe equipment use. Our members also benefit from over 20 cone 10 glazes, more than a dozen high-fire clay bodies (clay and firing fees apply), and personalized storage options.Throughout the year, we offered 72 ceramics classes, 12 professional development workshops, and 24 Clay Club sessions. Members also had access to monthly member-exclusive workshops, and the opportunity to participate in two major sales events: our annual Holiday Sale and our biannual Parking Lot Sale.We are deeply committed to equity and access. Membership is offered on a sliding scale. The Sustaining level of $210 per month covers the actual cost of operations. The Supporting level of $250 per month is a pay-it-forward option that helps subsidize access for others. The Supported level of $170 per month is available by application and helps reduce financial barriers for marginalized or underrepresented community members. In 2024, we awarded 30 Supported Memberships, ensuring access to studio space and resources for those who may not otherwise have the opportunity to pursue ceramics. 1211965 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true true true false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 85 0 true 33 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 9 8 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false CA X Tali Reicher 5105283286 724 Camelia Street Berkeley CA 94710 Bobbi Fabian Executive Dir. 50.00 0.00 X X 105623 0 14533 Cheryl Stevens Board President 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Zoe Thorsland Vice President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Susan Meinke Secretary 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Sachin Granpule Treasurer 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Sandy Sherwin Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Elizabeth Grossman Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Beth Rockmill Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Suhail Chandler Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Larry Cohen Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 105623 14533 1 false false false Madera Group 2150 Allston Way Berkeley CA 94704 Fundraising consultant 160000 1 235098 478113 73094 713211 Classes & workshops 900099 568162 568162 Firing & day use fees 900099 168702 168702 Memberships 900099 911051 911051 Space rental 531120 15382 15382 1663297 11093 11093 0 0 32143 32143 32143 32143 0 0 0 203033 153497 49536 49536 Insurance proceeds 900099 10868 10868 10868 2480148 1712833 54104 0 0 0 0 127320 63660 38196 25464 0 731306 611284 107127 12895 2496 2181 313 2 68997 49427 19331 239 66751 52800 11147 2804 0 0 46746 46746 0 160000 160000 0 87514 53949 32999 566 11826 5845 5277 704 99765 72809 25043 1913 29238 22768 6470 0 196084 183977 8071 4036 6504 3758 2342 404 0 0 0 0 48666 30587 16280 1799 16140 16140 Dues,licenses,service fees 54723 54723 Shared cost allocation 0 81688 -86025 4337 0 1754076 1211965 320478 221633 514478 313598 362102 0 36919 92016 0 0 0 22847 22026 11219 23090 3762232 202634 90754 3559598 760993 0 0 0 0 139604 40279 1576814 4412709 120824 175339 123665 121320 2100000 205397 128729 449886 2525388 X 1075257 1595085 51671 292236 1126928 1887321 1576814 4412709 726072 34321 X false true X true false X 390 103182 128035 61519 713211 1006337 511932 434016 1420669 1734076 1866330 5967023 0 0 0 512322 537198 1548704 1795595 2579541 6973360 5000 30000 24836 59836 0 5000 30000 24836 59836 6913524 2 5087 3621 61700 11093 81503 8961 8961 2 5087 3621 61700 20054 90464 0 555 5386 10868 16809 512324 542285 1552880 1862681 2610463 7080633 X 0.00000 0.00000 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 916927 916927 2580309 12682 2567627 50108 47350 2758 214888 142602 72286 3559598 Membership security deposit 76285 Operating lease liability 52444 128729 X 2480148 2480148 2480148 1754076 1754076 1754076 Part X : FIN48 Footnote The Internal Revenue Service and the California Franchise Tax Board have determined that the Organization is exempt from federal and state income taxes under IRC 501(c)(3) and California RTC 23701.
