This year at the Santa Fe Spanish Market will be an extraordinary celebration as it’s the 70th year for the annual festival. There will be more than 100 artists showcasing traditional arts in various categories, including woodcarving, tinwork, hide painting, straw appliqué, furniture, ironwork, and much more. All of these works are created by using traditional techniques employed for centuries.
Most of the artists who attend the Santa Fe Spanish Market associate as professionals of the trade, meaning there’s a true dedication to their work. Tradition is vital, with generation to generation passing down their skills, all hoping to continue these trades in the younger generations. The Traditional Spanish Market 2022 is a fantastic venue to visit artists and make purchases directly. All while taking in the festive music, colorful procession, and overall enjoy a happy gathering with visitors and locals alike.
