I came to Santa Fe on a bachelorette trip, which I planned for my sister. She was interested in pottery and we found this absolute gem of a place. I cannot recommend highly enough! Every one of the 6 of us who went felt rejuvenated after the class, it was a fun, creative experience but also somehow meditative. Theo brings the best vibes and was a great, wise, kind leader of the class. I will definitely try to come back on a future visit and if you are contemplating a class or experience, contemplate no further--- pick this one!!

I also rented studio space to do hand building while living in Santa Fe for the month of June. The studio is beautiful, with excellent lighting and very good equipment. Big tables, lots of shelf space. The sign up schedule is easy to understand and the hours available are generous and a reasonable price. Theo was easy to work with, answered questions quickly and was so accommodating. I've worked in many clay studios and besides how well it is is equipped, there is always a vibe, an energy. The energy that Theo has created here is creative, generous, gracious and warm and it attracts clay artists who fit that description perfectly. Loved every minute I spent there, eager to return.

Artful Soul Santa Fe…read more I took a Saturday night painting class here and had such a great experience. I worked on a landscape inspired by the hills of Taos, and what really stood out wasn't just the painting itself--it was how the whole evening felt. Laura and Mickey are wonderful teachers. They guide you step by step in a way that's clear and supportive, but never rigid. There's a real encouragement to follow your own vision, to experiment, and to not take it all too seriously. It creates this relaxed, creative energy where you can actually enjoy the process instead of worrying about getting it "right." The whole space feels warm and welcoming, and it's easy to settle in and just paint. By the end of the night, I felt both proud of what I made and inspired to keep going. If you're looking for a fun, supportive place to explore painting, I'd definitely recommend checking out a class here.

The glass-blowing experience was absolutely wonderful. From the moment we arrived, the staff was welcoming and incredibly knowledgeable. They guided us through the process, making it both fun and educational. The facility itself is inspiring, filled with beautiful pieces of art created by talented artisans. I was amazed by the variety of colors and techniques used in the glass-blowing process. The hands-on experience allowed us to create our own unique pieces, which was a thrill! Whether you're a beginner or have some experience, the instructors were patient and supportive, ensuring everyone felt comfortable. It's a fantastic way to spend an afternoon, and I'm already looking forward to my next visit! If you're in Santa Fe, make sure to stop by Prairie Dog Glass for an unforgettable experience!

I even misunderstood the time and showed up 45 minutes late (!) and they still worked with us and moved things around so we could have the full 2 hours which was the perfect amount!

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!
