2 Hour Pottery Experience (Wheel or Hand-Building)

2 Hour Pottery Experience (Wheel or Hand-Building)

Overview

All of our pottery experiences are one-time, two-hour sessions guided by local Santa Fe artists and geared toward travelers, newbies, and anyone looking for a fun introduction to pottery. At the end of class, students will recycle their pieces, but you need not walk away empty handed. Each student gets $15 off of a piece from our gallery, which is full of pottery handcrafted by our teachers.

In the wheel-throwing experience, students will dive into the most popular method of making ceramics. Working at the wheel is a meditative, yet challenging process. In this two-hour class, our potters will take you through the process of throwing a piece of pottery on the wheel.

In our hand-building experience, students will learn the ancient techniques of working with clay by hand through sculpting, coil-building, or slab-building. The slowness of these methods allow for deeper connection with the material and total freedom of expression through clay.

My BFF and I had the most fun making weird pots at Paseo. Through Paseo's patient and helpful guidance, we crafted memories and had a wonderful experience.

Christopher was fantastic. He provided both demonstration and then hands-on where required. The space is modern, comfortable and the cocktails were a plus.
