The Museum of International Folk Art is unlike most of the art museums you will find and is a must-visit! With revolving unique exhibits, it highlights a art genre that you will see remnants of all over town and throughout our property!

A must-visit when in Santa Fe. One of the most fascinating collections you will find anywhere of folk art, including Alexander Girard’s entire collection.

Of all the museums run by the New Mexico Department of Cultural Affairs, this one is probably the most unique. Southwestern art is definitely represented, but the Museum of International Folk Art also showcases more than 135,000 objects and has interesting displays representing daily life in societies all over the globe. At this museum, you'll encounter African, Asian, Middle Eastern, contemporary Hispanic and Latino, European, North American and Spanish Colonial pieces ranging from household objects, ceramics and paintings to toys, puppets and costumes. Don't worry about boring your kids: the large collection of colorful toys from around the world is sure to spark their interest.
