MIY Ceramics & Glass Studio

MIY Ceramics & Glass Studio has been shaping clay and glass in Hollywood, FL since 2007, continuing where an earlier ceramics space at the same general concept left off: a real working studio where beginners and serious hobbyists can learn pottery and glass techniques side by side. Today the studio operates out of 6791 Taft Street with a full weekly schedule that runs Tuesday through Sunday, closed only on Mondays.

The class list covers both major materials in its name. On the ceramics side, students can learn wheel throwing, the hand-building techniques used for sculptural and functional pieces built without a wheel, and general clay workshops geared toward different skill levels. On the glass side, the studio teaches glass fusing and mosaic work, giving students a second medium to explore without needing to sign up at a separate business across town. Both adult and kids classes are offered, so the studio can serve a parent and child on completely different skill tracks under the same roof.

Beyond scheduled classes, MIY offers an artist membership program and open studio access for people who already know their way around a wheel or a kiln and just need reliable access to equipment and firing services. That combination, structured classes for beginners plus open access for independent artists, is what keeps a working ceramics studio relevant to hobbyists at very different stages, from someone centering clay for the first time to a member finishing a body of work for a show.

The studio also runs the kind of programming that turns a hobby space into a genuine community hub: gallery exhibitions that give student and member work wall space, art camps and after-school programs for kids during school breaks, and party and corporate event bookings for groups that want a hands-on ceramics or glass experience instead of a standard venue rental. Restoration and commission services round out the offering for people who need a specific broken piece repaired or a custom piece built to order.

With a posted weekly schedule that runs from 10:00 am to 9:00 pm on weekdays and shorter hours on weekends, MIY Ceramics & Glass Studio is built for regular, drop-in style engagement rather than a once-a-year pottery class. For Hollywood, FL residents looking for a hands-on creative outlet, a studio with nearly two decades of continuous ceramics and glass instruction behind it offers a level of institutional knowledge that is hard to find at a newer shop.
