Entry No. 59 — the Durango file — filed under: hands-on

Yunomi Pottery Studio

Tucked inside Durango's historic Smiley Building artist hub, Yunomi is a wheel-throwing studio for both first-timers and people sharpening their skills. It offers wheel classes and monthly memberships in an intimate, craft-focused space. The name itself refers to a Japanese teacup, fitting its hand-thrown ethos.

The move: Book a wheel-throwing class and try to center clay and pull your first cups together at adjacent wheels.

📍 Before you go Geared toward classes and memberships rather than guaranteed drop-in; contact to confirm a one-off session for two.
