Owners Steve and Nancy Scagnelli opened Esteban’s in 1974. It was one of the first shops in the newly built Tlaquepaque Arts and Craft Village. Originally Steve made all the pottery for the shop. Over time more and more artists were added to the store, and today Esteban’s represents over 50 artists and craftsmen, mostly from Arizona and other nearby southwestern states. While Steve and Nancy are mostly retired, their daughter Stephanie has taken over the management, ensuring the continuity of the business and adding her touch to the merchandise offered for sale.
