5.00I participated in the pottery experience while on a girls weekend in Santa Fe. So much fun. I did learn I am not very good at the wheel - but it didn't matter because I had a great time and left with a much greater appreciation of what goes into making pottery pieces. The instructors and everyone working at Paseo were super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The others in our group were a variety of ages and genders. Everyone had a fun experience and learned something. I highly recommend.
excellent activity

5.00Had a great time with the entire family. The instruction was great and it was super cool being able to work in the studio amongst the artists for a couple hours. We were all super thrilled with our finished pieces, even if it meant destroying them at the end!
Enlightening to the craft

5.00Had a super fun experience at Paseo!!! We got to learn the basics about throwing pottery on a wheel, and it inspired both of us to take a series of classes once we got back home to Colorado! Thank you Paseo--and Aio for the fun class!!
