Itinerary
Day 1
Meet Paul Seftel at his Cerrillos gallery for a private, one-hour studio visit. Guests will be guided through the artist’s process, view mineral-based works, explore the experience room, and enjoy refreshments. Choose the morning (11:00) or late-afternoon (16:00) session when booking.
Studio visit with artist Paul Seftel — Morning session
Meet the artist at SEFTEL GALLERY for a focused, one-hour private studio visit. Includes viewing original mineral-based paintings, discussion of materials and technique, and light refreshments. Recommended arrival 5–10 minutes early to allow time to be welcomed and seated.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive 5–10 minutes before the listed start time and use the Waldo St. gallery entrance noted on-site signage.
- Street parking is available nearby; bring small bills if using a local parking meter or tip jar etiquette applies for very small attendants.
- Dress in smart-casual layers—the studio is climate-controlled but evenings can be cool in Cerrillos during autumn.
Studio visit with artist Paul Seftel — Late-afternoon session
Meet the artist at SEFTEL GALLERY for a focused, one-hour private studio visit. This late-afternoon session is timed to allow softer light in the studio; includes viewing mineral-based paintings, conversation about technique and materials, and light refreshments. Please arrive 5–10 minutes early.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive 5–10 minutes before the listed start time so the session can begin promptly; the gallery entrance is on Waldo St.
- If you’re coming from Santa Fe, allow roughly 25–35 minutes for the drive along the Turquoise Trail depending on traffic.
- If you prefer lower noise and a quieter atmosphere, request the 16:00 session when booking for a calmer late-afternoon visit.
