Painted Pottery

We start each painted pottery party by doling out drinks (we’ve got a variety of beverages to choose from, and you’re welcome to BYOB as well). Then we will pick out bisqueware pieces to paint and take students on a tour of our studio where dozens of Santa Fe ceramic artists come to create. Paseo Pottery has been part of the local art scene for three decades. Our space includes both a working ceramics studio and a retail gallery. In the studio, artists feverishly design and create—think muddy mayhem, whirling wheels, fiery kilns, and sundry clay-coated potting paraphernalia—and our gallery is full of pottery handcrafted by local Santa Fe artists.

Classes are taught by our professional ceramic artists who volunteer their time. Cost includes a two-hour class complete with libations, materials, and tools. Bisqueware pieces are priced additionally.

Your pieces will be ready for pickup 3-5 days after your class, ensuring a quick return for those of you visiting Santa Fe for a short time.

How much is the class?

The base pricing for a painted pottery class is $65 per person for a group class. You can upgrade to a private “pampered” party (which includes fresh pastries and/or local chocolates, libations from Tumbleroot, and more to personalize the class for your group) for $100 per person. Pieces are priced separately and generally range from $5-$35.

Immerse yourself in the process as underglazes, painting supplies, stencils, and underglaze transfers are all thoughtfully provided, ensuring you have the tools to bring your artistic vision to life. Our extensive selection of bisqueware pieces sets the stage for your masterpiece, from functional plates to decorative figurines.

Unleash your imagination by choosing from a rich palette of colors, allowing you to personalize each piece to match your unique style. Whether you prefer bold and vibrant hues or soft and pastel tones, our color options cater to every artistic preference.
