My husband and I took the 2 1/2 hour class together back in January. We had never used a potter's wheel or even used potter's clay, but were pleasantly surprised that after awhile we caught on enough to each make a piece to keep. Mari, the instructor, was great and very patient. She even took pictures of us with our... More

I went with my wife (27), my dad (60) and my grandmother (82) and we all had a great time! Miry has successfully delineated a workshop that has something for everybody. After a short info session on the art of pottery and a fun, simple, and inviting demonstration on the potter's wheel, Miry let my wife and I drive and... More

We stayed in San Juan and the drive to Rincon is really nice..the last 10 miles trying to locate Miri's studio is ever more adventurous.. It's like driving through the valleys and ocean and mountains..Miri's studio is kinda located on a mountain top with amazing views from glass windows of her studio and greenery all around..Miri is a really nice...

I can check working with a pottery wheel off my bucket list. A memorable experience with Mira, the pottery instructor, who had the patience of Job and lots of alternative methods if the first one does not work for you.. The 2.5hr workshop, "Hands with Clay" flew by. I love learning new skills with laughs and giggles. She does the... More

My girlfriend and I chose the 2 & 1/2 hour pottery lesson, and it was the best decision we could have made. Not only do you get to learn to make pottery from a top notch instructor in a beautiful studio overlooking the Rincon mountains. Yoou also get to keep one of the pieces you make creating something that will... More

Miri is so talented and a great teacher. I had so much fun creating my piece. We had enough time to do two pieces, one at the wheel, and one by hand. It is a little hard to get here but just follow the instructions and you'll be good. There's a lot of curves, so be prepared if you get... More

The place was not hard to find when we notice the signs by the road and read the guide on their website. We didn't make a reservation for the workshop, so we just walked around the gallery, viewed the beautiful pieces made by the owner. She invited us to her beautiful studio with two big windows and a gorgeous view... More

Miri is a gracious hostess. Your GPS will help you find her in the hills above Rincon, but call first to make sure she's home (787.546.8435). Miri's studio and gallery are in the lower level of her house, perched high on a hill. The short drive is worth the trip. Miri will be happy to show you her studio and... More

We visited this wonderful pottery studio during their post-Thanksgiving open house. Miri, the owner and resident artist, has set up a lovely gallery to display her work. The space is crisp and clean and shows off the beauty of each piece. Her work is really gorgeous and we found great gifts - for ourselves and others!. While there, we were... More

My wife and I had a great time playing around trying to make anything out of clay! Miri is a true professional and very good and patient teacher. We opted for the one hour session, since we knew probably wouldn't want anything we made - good choice! Throwing pottery is much harder than it looks. I will never drink from... More
