Page 56 - WINE DINE AND TRAVEL FALL 2021 DISCOVERING SANTA FE

f we had to name Santa Fe’s top draw for us,
it would be Canyon Road. We have collected
art from around the world as mementos of
I our travel adventures. Yet, compared to
many other art communities we’ve visited,
Canyon Road stands apart. Not only because of
the number or variety of galleries, but it’s the
robust history. Walking down the road, you can
almost feel the passion and the determination of
pioneering artists who turned a dirt road lined
with mud huts into a worldwide destination for
art lovers.
The Canyon Road Arts District is Santa Fe’s
oldest and most historic district. Set in the
foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the
narrow winding road is lined with old adobes
filled with great art. It’s home to over 80 gal-
leries offering an eclectic mix of everything
from vintage Native American crafts to contem-
porary abstracts and sculptures.
