The Model Shop is booked on a session-by-session basis for rostered courses interested in doing in-class Shop Orientations as well as demonstrations. Note that all shop users must complete a Shop Orientation prior to general access use. Please do not book the Model Shop for activities that could take place in a general-use classroom or studio such as lectures, critiques, or light fabrication.
Faculty must provide a copy of their syllabus as part of the reservation process.
Please email the course syllabus to
shops@cca.edu Prior to requesting specific reservation dates, please review the Model Shop calendar on Portal for the latest availability:
