In a thrilling development for art enthusiasts and creative souls alike, Surfside proudly welcomes PotterMe, a new Paint Your Own Pottery Studio, to the heart of the downtown district at 9484 Harding Ave. The brainchild of trained local artist Jenna Helfman, this vibrant addition promises to inject a wave of artistic energy into the community.

Jenna, armed with a Fine Arts degree in Ceramic Sculpture, brings a lifetime of artistic experiences and a passion for hands-on creativity to Surfside. She graduated from the George Washington University with a BA in Ceramics, and an AAS in Textile Development from FIT NYC.

PotterMe is set to become a hub for artistic expression, fostering a sense of community and providing a unique space for individuals to explore their creativity.

"I am so excited to share PotterMe with both old and new friends in Surfside," said Jenna. "This neighborhood spot is the culmination of my artistic journey, and I can't wait to share my skills and love for art with the community."

PotterMe is not just a studio; it's a creative haven where individuals can immerse themselves in the world of ceramic sculpture and unleash their artistic potential. Jenna's expertise and dedication to the craft promise an unparalleled experience for patrons.

The studio opened its doors in early March, inviting everyone to come by, get inspired, and most importantly, have fun. Whether you're a seasoned artist or a complete novice, PotterMe aims to provide a welcoming space for all to explore and enjoy the joy of creating something beautiful with their own hands.

Surfside's downtown district eagerly anticipates the positive impact PotterMe will have on the local arts scene. This latest addition aligns with the Town's commitment to fostering creativity, community engagement, and a vibrant downtown atmosphere.
