Where to go to be in the know...about travel
Just as the Native Americans of New Mexico celebrate their culture during such events as Santa Fe Indian Market, the Hispanic descendents of settlers also have their cultural celebrations. Santa Fe Fiesta is the largest and oldest of these Hispanic celebrations. It has evolved into an annual celebration with religious observances, fun parades, entertainment and something called… The Burning of Zozobra!
Santa Fe hosts the largest international folk art festival in the world each July. Last night the Santa Fe International Folk Art Festival on Museum Hill was ablaze with color as the booths opened and the vendors welcomed their customers with smiles and open arms. The event is not only fun, it is an event which brings artisans from all over the world.
When more than 150 of the world’s finest traditional artists travel from the farthest corners of the globe to participate in the Santa Fe International Folk Art Market this July, some will arrive as widely celebrated cultural artists, while others will be leaving their villages and boarding planes for the very first time
