We had a wonderful learning experience with our family. Clara was engaging and taught us how to spin pots and bowls. I would highly recommend this for anyone seeking to enjoy themselves while learning how to make something with their hands!

I love paseo so much. It brings joy, community, creativity and relaxation to my life. One of my favorite places in Santa Fe!

Love this place! I'm taking a a beginners hand building pottery class. It's a weekly series for 7 weeks, and it's been so fun! Tiff, our instructor, is fantastic. She's super knowledgeable and helpful during our classes, and adapts the class to our projects. The space is quite big, and has a very nice atmosphere. You can bring food/drinks while you're in the studio, and you can even get some snacks/drinks while you're there. Dogs also roam the studio while their owners are working. Paseo donates a ton of money to local charities which is so sweet. They're a non-profit and you can "vote" on where you want the money to go. I'll probably take another class here. So fun!

This is the place in Santa Fe where throwing pottery happens. I experienced a pottery wheel for the first time. WARNING: This can become addictive!! They offer a taste of this once a month for a minimum amount AND all the monies they collect that night (yes it's held in the early evening) goes to a local charity. Plenty of instructors are there to help your hands produce pottery beauty. Not to worry if you are unsure of your pottery skills. By the end of the evening, you will leave with a new kind of pride. A very inexpensive way to dabble in pottery. Best news is there are plenty of classes to make you into the pottery master you always wished

I did a wheel throwing experience with several ladies and we all had a great time. Ben was a knowledgeable and fun instructor.

Paseo Pottery was such a unique experience. Our instructor Clara walked us through all the steps to make a tall vase shaped structure then let us be free to make anything for the remaining hour of the 2hr class. I would recommend this for anyone having family or guests come visit the Abq/Santa Fe area or if wheel pottery is just an interest!

A friend and I did the one time Pottery Throwing class to try it out and had an excellent time. Ben, our instructor, was fantastic and showed us how to go through the basic process, gave us a tour of the studio and gallery. We had a wonderful experience all the way around and plan to do the longer 7 week class soon.

I have taken only a few pottery classes from a complete beginner stance and already feel a lot more confident in my skills and feel at home in the space. Definitley worth taking classes if you are just starting or are looking to refine your pottery skills that you already have.

We scheduled a class while visiting Santa Fe and had a great time! The instructor was very friendly and helpful and we really enjoyed the whole experience. It was a nice bonus to know that Paseo Pottery is a nonprofit that serves local communities. We purchased some beautiful pieces from the studito take home as souvenirs.

Awesome place! The business model is more than generous and it was a fun activity our whole family enjoyed. Neil our artist/instructor was super friendly and helpful too! Would absolutely go back and would be a regular if I lived in Santa Fe.

I enjoyed this immersive experience into pottery. Our teacher was friendly, helpful, and had a great sense of humor. It was well worth the money spent to try something new and get out of my comfort zone.

What a fun experience our pottery class was! Went with a couple of friends and it was DEFINITELY a highlight of our Santa Fe weekend. Our instructor, Michael, was fun and funny but also a diligent teacher of his craft. I'm already ready to come back and take another class!!

We had such a great time learning to throw so pots with Michael. He is an amazing teacher. Extra points for libations and the kiln opening!

Paseo Pottery is a great place for a one-time "experience" or an ongoing set of classes - either hand-building or wheel! Good teachers are available for both classes. It's a welcoming environment and everyone in the studio is happy to be helpful. There's a good gallery where you can find lots of good, handmade pottery at all price-points.And, a super extra is that all funds, after expenses, are donated to charity. Can't beat that!

Whether you want a one-time "experience" or ongoing class (wheel or hand-building) Paseo Pottery is a perfect choice. Staff (mostly volunteers) and other potters are friendly, welcoming and helpful! It's a fun, happy experience. If you give it a try, you'll want to come back for more! Also, a super gallery where you find a wide variety of handmade pottery at all price points. And a uniquely admirable feature: profits, after expenses are covered, are given to charity.
