The Community
Santa Fe embodies a rich multi-cultural history, whose influences are apparent in everything from the architecture, the food, the art and on. Remember, we're seated at an elevation of 7,000 feet, so come and partake of 320 sunny days per year.
Santa Fe has long been a center for arts and culture and Santa Fe is one of the country's largest art markets. You'll find nearly 250 galleries and dealers to explore. Santa Fe has more than a dozen museums to explore featuring culture, history and traditions of this region and the world. With a backdrop of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the world-class Santa Fe Opera makes its home here and we want you to feel right at home here tooÇ
