When it comes to museums, Santa Fe has a lot to brag about. From art — including the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum — to the Santa Fe Children’s Museum, there are more than a dozen museums to tour in this city.
On a recent visit, I chose to tour three, each with a different story to tell.
Museum of International Folk Art
Home to the world’s largest collection of folk art, this museum represents cultures from around the world. With a collection of more than 150,000 artifacts, the museum is a labyrinth of color, shape, and beauty, from carvings to paintings to creations on paper.
Museum of Spanish Colonial Art
The only museum in the country dedicated to exhibiting and interpreting the art of the Spanish colonial period (with a focus on Hispanic New Mexico), the Museum of Spanish Colonial Art houses a collection of more than 3,700 pieces.
