MIY Ceramics located in the City of Hollywood, FL, is an open studio and learning center for people interested in the fine arts of handmade pottery and glass fusing.  We are a unique open playground for clay and glass enthusiasts, recreational potters and ceramics artists of all skill levels who come to our studio to make, learn, play with and shop for functional and decorative pottery, fused dichroic glass jewelry, glass artwork and slumped glass bottles.

The South Florida Council, BSA and MIY Ceramics offer a fun-filled, educational Pottery Activity Program to the youth members and leaders of all the Scouting units, volunteers, Scouters and BSA employees (  and to family members of these groups as well  ) at reduced prices.  Click on the italicized names of the activities below for complete details.
