Took a beginners Wheel Class with Lori and now Im hooked. A friendly, welcoming, relaxed atmosphere from the start. Such a great group of people. Looking forward to becoming a member.
Having become a member at MIY Ceramics is one of the best decisions Ive made in a long time. The studio, staff and owner are all top notch and community oriented. The atmosphere is relaxed, casual and very friendly. Having 24/7 access to the studio was a big plus and makes life so much easier for members.
My friends and I took a wine glass painting class with Frances and we had a blast!! It was such a nice and calming experience and Frances’ firecracker personality made it all the more enjoyable! Also, they were very accommodating with our Groupon and class schedule. Customer service was just amazing! Thank you for all you do 🤗🤗
Our instructor Jackie was great to work with, very helpful and allowed us to be creative with lots of options of tools, molds, and stamps.
MIY held a 3 day workshop Exploring Cone 6 glazes for ceramic artists with Glaze guru John Britt March6-8. Fantastic! 30 + people It was a stellar opportunity and workshops don’t get better than this. Can’t wait for the next one. MIY is a great place to try pottery for the first time and for the experienced.
So much fun...do it
I went to a pottery class. The best way to describe it is controlled chaos, but in a good way. The instructor was very knowledgeable and helpful as well as patient. Managing a bunch of people who have never spun a pottery wheel has got to be a talent. Even the studio members helped out. Though I do not see myself becoming a master potter, I will be coming back as it was a fun and novel experience led by people that are clearly passionate about it. I think next time I will bring some wine!
Went for a pottery hand building class & this studio has such a relaxed and welcoming vibe! Instruction was great- perfect mix of history & technique & they’re as hands on as you want.. whether you’re looking for step by step guidance or you like your freedom (like me), they’re on it- will definitely go back!
Love, Love, Love this place.I took my boyfriend here as a surprise birthday gift for him (moreso me; hahaha). However he enjoyed it so thats all that matters. I have been wanting to come here for some time but never got the chance and then of course Covid (major eye roll).From calling to make the appointment to the day of arrival everything was smooth. I called inquired about classes, paid and waited since I booked it week in advance. Yes I am one of those people. When we got there both of the ladies that were present was awesome and very helpful throughout the 2 hours.My only suggestion would be to somehow figure out how to shorten the tutorial aspect of the 2 hours. That portion in and of itself almost an hour and we werent able to fully enjoy and be able to make 3 figures out of the 3 clay balls that we were given.Other than this, I had a great time and would certainly come again. Currently planning a girls day. Yay!
Just finished a cone 6 glaze workshop here. They are a great group of potters who have established a friendly atmosphere of supportive teaching and sharing. You will love it here.
Attended a John Britt workshop at this studio. I was impressed with the cleanliness of it all (because clay gets EVERYWHERE) and the indoor and outdoor set up. Absolutely had a great time :)
I have been coming to MIY Ceramics for about ten years to take classes, make art and just hang around with all the great members I have met. I would strongly recommend them to anyone who wants to have a fantastic art experience.
We had a great time Saturday in the hand building class. Even though there were 20 people in the class, we all had a blast. The two teachers, Jackie and Lori, were a delight and wonderful instructors. Cant wait to go back and paint the incense holder I made. I even found a lovely ceramic planter to hang on my wall at home in their beautiful art gallery! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to enjoy a truly unique experience or find a one of a kind gift in their gallery.
I brought 3 of my friends to the Glass Fusing class and we drove from Miami on a very rainy day. It was well worth it. Jennifer was super in explaining all types of glass and techniques. She was also very friendly and quirky. We had a blast and plan to return whenever possible. This class is highly recommended!
Had a great experience here tonight. Took a Mosaic class. The instructor was pleasant and sweet. We expected to be heavily instructed, but to our surprise, we were guided and encouraged to allow our creative spirit to lead. We chose our piece and were given plenty of time to create. We ordered food and brought wine from home. Simply a wonderful, relaxing, creative and even romantic evening.I can also see myself bringing my kids here for a class.
Im looking forward to being a part of their pottery family. Very friendly
Loved the experience
If anyone knows anything about a pottery studio, then you know that this is the real deal. Lucky are we who have found this perfect potting place .it is a true delight!And also, if you know anything about any properly functioning cooperative pottery studio, you know it has its share of positive and negative issues. This studio deals with all of them professionally and courteously. if youve ever been into a co-op studio, then you know theyre all kinds of characters who walk in the door. Is not an easy task and I thoroughly respect the way they handle their studio and the people who join us there.They offer many options and outlets for creative expression. They have many tools available, absolutely anything you could possibly need is there for pottery as well as glassworks. Along with this, there are a lot of very knowledgeable artists or crafts people Who are always there to lend a helping hand. some of the art that comes out of the studio is worthy of a museum or gallery showing. And the blend of different styles that you can see there on a daily basis is a pleasure to the eye.I am so happy that I found this place after being away from the studio for 20 years.they have renewed the art in me.Thank you for having me and for being there, MIY!
I had a great time everyone was extremely friendly and happy to help me!! The pottery class was fun !! Am planning to bring my husband next time !!Keep up the good work !!
I went there yesterday proposing an idea for a potential production run. Kudos to Kaitlyn Coughran for being very receptive to my design and sharing valuable manufacturing input to help make this happen.
I love this place! A relaxed atmosphere with a lot fun classes to take!
We had a fantastic experience here. Our glass fusion teacher was wonderful, sweet and funny. Bright and colorful personality just like her hair. We are coming back again to make more pieces for what is going to be our art wall.
Great place to learn pottery or glass fusion. Extremely knowledgeable and friendly people. Relaxed easy atmosphere and you can make beautiful things. GO!!!!
This place is fantastic. Everyone is very helpful and friendly. The classes are great and the atmosphere is mellow.
Loooove this Place!All of the instructors are highly professional, very kind and incredible friendly. Francis is awesome!!!!I’m definitely going back, and hoping in the future to become a member.This place is definitely “one of a kind”!!!
Wonderful time at glass fusion class.
Purchased a Groupon for Mosaic Class and asked prior if this is all we needed for the class. Yes they said. We get there and you have to purchase the piece to make.The class went from an expected 6 to 15 - the instructor had to stop to set up for more people, we had to share tools and pay $20 for a $3 frameHe did not make enough grout the first time and just dragged on making more, which ran the class later and he told us to just lightly wipe off the grout and in the morning wisk it off.My project has to be thrown out - Hard Grout on glass - scrubbed with a brush and still will not come off.I paid to learn how not to do it . Dont waste your money - just go on line it is really easy to do !
THIS PLACE IS AWFUL!!!! I bought 3 groupons to enjoy myself with a friend. At arrival, people were on top of each other in different places of the shop. There was not enough room for each attendee. The instructor was ok but there was no guidance as to how to complete a piece. Once I completed the piece they asked me if I wanted to color it. I decided to color it so they asked me to come back on another date. When I attempted to come back, they said that they had left me a message and they had thrown away my piece. I spent three hours building my piece and was willing to spend $20 more to come back and put color. I am cancelling all the Groupons and I will never be back. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED!!!UPDATE - RESPONSEThank you for your response (although a year later). I forgot to mention that I never received a call to come back. When I asked when and which number was called, I was told that you did not have that information. My first suggestion is to keep a log of calls. My second suggestion is to get the people that want to paint the pieces to schedule a date when they can return. When I tried doing it, I was told that you could not schedule because you were very behind.Thank you,
Went with a group and had a great time creating a pottery piece. Staff was very helpful and friendly.
Andy the pottery man is an absolute jerk. He is a disgrace to business owners like myself. He is not an example of what a teacher should be. Completely and utterly disrespectful. Screamed at me across the room!For whatever reason in the guys mind he picked and choose who he helped who he talked through things with. I have no clue how he has business open for groups when he is clearly not a social and group handling person.
A great place to take a class or use studio time to make it yourself!
Was with a Wounded Warrior Group and was shocked today at the sheer disrespectfullness that ensued.The pottery teacher yelling at another individual in a room full of PTSD War Heros.That is no kind of man or business that I would ever associate myself or anyone I know with. His assistant the glass maker was very helpful and tried to calm the pottery Guy named Andie down but then his anger turned to her. It was just an obscene mess.5 people got up and walked out of the group session because of him verbally yelling loud enough for the whole studio class to hear at a woman asking for assistance. Have never seen such. Please, do not go unless you are ok with being be littled and yelled at. Atrocious.
My fiancé and I are here on vacation from CT. We wanted to paint pottery and found this place on Groupon. The website and Google both say they are open 10am-4pm today. So we drive 25 min to open their business doors and stand there awkwardly, waiting to be acknowledged. Finally we walked around to the back to ask if we could paint a piece or two. The woman automatically looks up and says well, no. We arent open today. Members only So Google lied. Their website lied. The open door lied. We explained that we were here on vacation just wanting to paint. Well we arent open was the response. These people were rude, unprofessional, unaccommodating. THANK GOD WE DIDNT BUY THE GROUPON. We would have been out $29. Horrible experience. Horrible people. The place looks like its out of business from the outside. So undeserving of our hard earned money.
A little pricey but great instruction from the leader of the group. A lot of different arts and crafts are available here too.
Wine glass painting was fun
Had to get up and leave a group class today because I was fearful of the pottery teacher.
