Frances

Sabag

Events Director / Studio coordinator

Born in Campbell Ca.in1946 and was introduced to art by her grandfather. She would sit with him while he told her stories as he drew caricatures for her. Frances moved to Miami Beach and continued to study the world of art including pottery and sculpture at Miami Dade. She Attended Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem Israel.

For 40 years, she devoted her time to family and building a successful business. Never losing the need to express herself through art, she finally turned her full attention to developing her own identification in her chosen fields of art.

In the last 10 years, she has been focusing on Fused glass and creating her own unique line of glass art. Teaching people how to tap into their imagination is her goal. Watching their happy expression with their finished projects is her gratification

Lori Kane

Operations Manager / Head Potter

With 30 years of experience as a production potter and exhibitor, Lori has gained the respect of everyone who follows her work. She is truly a treasured member of the MIY Team.

Lori is best known for her unique style of combining shapes she has thrown on the wheel only to alter them into wonderful whimsical figurines that always brings on a smile. By adding quirky legs, feet, shoes, and fun colors to her pots, her special line of work is greatly sought after.

She has participated in many fine art shows around Florida, Las Olas and the Boca Fine Art shows to name a few. Because Lori is also a production potter, she can fill her display booths with not only her comical pieces but also a large selection of marvelous mugs, bowls, and vases.

Kaitlyn Coughran

Artist in residence

Kaitlyn has been an artist in residence at MIY Ceramics since 2016.

A native of Miami, she realized at an early age that she wanted to immerse herself in the field of art.

Following her dream, she attended the Design and Architecture Senior High of Miami. Continuing to Florida Atlantic University, Kaitlyn earned her Bachelor of Arts Degree in Studio Art with a concentration on graphic design and Ceramics.

Her scope of talents ranges from drawing and painting to sculpting and potter’s wheel and more. Kaitlyn, who struggles from bouts of anxiety, has learned turning to artwork can calm her mind, and help her focus. Keeping that in mind, she has a warm and encouraging approach to her teaching. This is a struggle that helps her in dealing with both adults and kids. She truly comprehends the benefits of creating something from nothing no matter what their artistic experience.
