A studio to call home

More than just a pottery studio, Paseo Pottery provides community for the members, students, and volunteers that call it home. Providing a safe and welcoming community space is one of the most important aspects of our work at Paseo. We also work to extend that sentiment into the community around us, by welcoming local nonprofits into the studio once a month at no cost. 100% of net proceeds from our First Friday Pottery Throw Downs are donated to local nonprofits each year, as selected by our customers, and we’ve donated over $75,000 thus far!

“I started at Paseo Pottery as a volunteer, then took a wheel class and now I’m teaching experience classes. The volunteer corps is wonderful and the studio is always a relaxing and fun place to create. We’re so fortunate to have Paseo Pottery!”

“Paseo Pottery changed my life. Community, personal growth, skill-building, good tunes, cocktails, playing with mud??? What more does one person need?!”

“Whether you’re in town for a weekend or several years, Paseo Pottery is a place of rich community and belonging. It may sound dramatic, but it has been such a gift, a life-altering gift, to be involved at Paseo. Regardless of experience ALL are welcome and feel safe to learn! I will shout it to the rooftops (& write testimonials) because I love it here. Thank you”

- Regan Hill, volunteer

“We took three classes at Paseo Pottery and are so pleased with the results. Most of all we enjoyed learning what it takes to produce any pottery, and understand that we caught just a glimpse of this meditative craft.  

Thank you for your patience and for introducing us to the multi-fold mission of Paseo Pottery.  We will hold the place, the people and your contribution to the goodness of Santa Fe in our hearts.”
