Photo of Mariel Bass at Work-Maho Campground

Where is the studio at Maho? Up by the restaurant? I'd like to stop by and check it out next trip.

It's just below the restaurant. For those wishing to drive to Maho Campground, head out towards Francis Bay. Just before you park, head left up a very steep road following the signs to Maho Campground.
The restaurant is a great place to enjoy the sunset.

Thanks for the comments on the photo and glad it stirred up some interest. I had visited St. John 3 years prior to learning of this studio so I hope my post here helps them get some more interest in the great work they are doing there. Maho campground is a non profit and they do some really great things for the Island. Anyone can visit the campground not just guest.

Due to the heat during the day, the Maho glassblowers only work in the evenings. If you want to go see them, I recommend stopping by the restaurant to enjoy the sunset during happy hour and possibly have dinner, and then walk down to the glassblowing studio after it gets dark.

You may want to bring a flashlight, because if there's no moon, it's pretty dark!

There was plenty of activity mid day when I visited in July. Mariel Bass was doing a demo, the potters were removing work from the kilm and a tile worker was working on a new bar top made out of glass tiles. My suggestion call ahead and check, maybe sign up for a class.
