My husband took a pottery lesson today and he had so much fun! Jen is an excellent teacher and she is very knowledgeable and personable. The whole experience was well worth the money! The best part is that you can have your piece glazed and mailed to you. Definitely recommend.

My husband and I came in initially to just look at the pottery (which was beautiful), but we ended up leaving as potters! We were staying in Telluride on vacation and Jen’s pottery lesson was definitely one of the highlights. She was so flexible and we got to do a same-day lesson. We had the best time and feel like we left with a new hobby to do together. Jen made it so much fun. She was kind, instructive, attentive, helpful and relaxed. We learned a ton and made lots of memories. This is a must-do if you’re in town!

We took pottery lessons from Jen during our vacation stay in Ouray. It was one of the highlights of our trip! We did a mother/daughter lesson and had a great time. Jen is an amazing instructor. She is patient, supportive, and encouraging throughout the process. We will totally do this again on our next trip. Highly recommend.

I had such a wonderful experience at Mtn Dog Arts yesterday for their first knitting class! It was worth every minute of my hour & a half drive to get there. The owner was responsive and accommodating to work with in making my reservation, and the space was cozy, sweet, and charming - so full of character. The class was just over 3 hours long and was an incredible value, I thought. Supplies were included, and the teachers were warm, knowledgeable, and humble. Even a non-artist such as myself left feeling confident in continuing my knitting project at home. The teachers provided their personal contact info for future questions and were just a real delight to spend an afternoon with. Every aspect of my experience there felt comfortable and like community... I can't wait to go back for the next in the series of knitting classes!

Great fun place, owner is a veteran and supports vets. She had a free pour painting for vets on the 4th. Absolutely above and beyond.

Loved visiting this cute store. We purchased some amazing pottery, the owner was so sweet and her dog was just as wonderful!

I wandered in here on a whim and am glad I did. They have some great stuff for sale and I had a fantastic conversation with the owner, who is retired Army. Overall it is a great little shop and the owner is awesome! Next time we roll through Ouray I plan on signing up for one of their pottery classes.

Had a terrific time recently with two of my grandkids learning how to work with clay on the 3 wheels that Jen has in her studio. It is a friendly, affirming environment and Jen is a patient, knowledgeable teacher!

Really frustrated—I purchased a custom mug July 11th and was told I would receive it in about 4 weeks, which I was more than willing to wait for. When I hadn’t heard anything at the end of August, I left a VM and received a call with an apology and it would be heading my way in a few weeks. Then when I hadn’t received anything by the end of September, I left another VM. I have yet to receive a response. So now it’s almost 3 months later, no mug and now I have to take time to call my credit card company to start an appeal. I love supporting small businesses but cannot support this one
