Flemington Pottery located at the Stangl Factory Building, 50 Mine St.,
(in the same space where Kissimmee River Pottery was previously located) is an amazing studio. It has features beginner to advanced potters would love.
The studio is extremely organized and clean. There is literally a commercial air scrubber machine running in the studio. I have asthma, and I appreciate the owner's attention to safe and healthy practices in the pottery studio.
The teachers are all very talented ceramic artists (their work is available to purchase in the beautiful gallery), and they are encouraging and wonderful at sharing their expertise.
Open studio times are available to students Tuesday to Sunday afternoons, for 3.5-4.5 hours. I am not aware of any other studio with such generous open studio times. I love having plenty of time to glaze and not feeling rushed. It is also nice to have access to a spray booth in addition to many dipping glazes.
Lastly, and most importantly, the people at the studio are friendly and warm, making the studio atmosphere relaxing and welcoming. Whether you are a beginner or a long-time potter, you will feel right at home at Flemington Pottery. read more
