Fired on the Mountain (1875 Post Rd, Wells, ME), owned by Annette and her family since May 2017, is a vibrant, family-operated pottery studio, café, and artisan gallery near Wells Beach. Transitioning to a fully family-run business in July 2019, they expanded with a café offering tasty coffee, drinks, treats, and vegetarian grab-and-go options crafted by the next generation. The studio invites locals and tourists to unleash their creativity through pottery painting, glass fusing, and clay work in a safe, fun atmosphere at affordable prices—starting at $6 for pieces, plus a $10 studio fee (waived with membership).
Community is at the heart of their mission. They support local events, children’s and seniors’ programs, and showcase work from Maine artisans in their gallery, where visitors can browse and purchase unique, locally made treasures like jewelry, soaps, and paintings. As nature enthusiasts, Annette’s family emphasizes gardening, animal love (especially dogs), and eco-friendly recycled art, reflecting their passion for the environment.
The welcoming space fosters creativity and connection, whether you’re painting pottery, sipping coffee, or shopping artisan goods. Open Tuesday–Sunday (hours vary; check website), Fired on the Mountain is perfect for a creative outing or a quick café stop.
