10 days filled with art markets, a new Canyon Road Art & Wine Stroll and
more than 100 art-focused events in galleries across the city begins July 12

June 28, 2019: Santa Fe Art Week, a new 10 day festival celebrating Santa Fe’s position as a vibrant and thriving center for arts and culture, featuring more than 100 visual arts-focused events and creative experiences will offer behind-the-scenes access to the city’s artists, studios, galleries and museums, July 12-21, 2019. Everyone from the serious collector to the art-curious traveler is invited to dive deeper into the Santa Fe scene during this inaugural art centric event.

The week begins with the International Folk Art Market on Museum Hill, continues with a mid-week Canyon Road Art & Wine Stroll and culminates with Art Santa Fe in the Santa Fe Community Convention Center. More than 100 additional events will take place providing visitors the opportunity to enjoy artist talks and demonstrations, book signings, children’s events, live music, studio tours, hands-on workshops, exhibit openings and more. These events will be held daily and are spread out at various locations around the city.

The Canyon Road Art & Wine Stroll will take over the famous gallery district on Wednesday, July 17, in a return to summer art crawl days of the past. Art lovers 21 years and older are invited to grab a glass of wine and walk from gallery to gallery throughout the evening. A half-mile portion of Canyon Road will be closed to vehicle traffic between Delgado Street and Camino Del Monte Sol from 4 to 6 p.m. for this event. Galleries will stay open until 7 p.m. allowing attendees plenty of time to visit all participating locations.
