Your Visit Makes a Difference

When you purchase a handmade, one-of-a-kind item at the Market, you’re getting a piece of folk art rooted in longstanding cultural tradition.  With your purchase, you will have made a positive impact on the life of the artist who created the piece, on his or her community, and on the world as a whole.

Your purchase will also help the Santa Fe International Folk Art Market achieve its goals to foster sustainability for folk artists, to assure viability for living folk art traditions worldwide, and to create intercultural educational exchange as a means of uniting the people of the world.

It takes global awareness and effort, great and small, to create positive change in our world.

In addition to your purchase, we at the Market hope that you will take home with you a greater appreciation for folk art as both an art form as well as a vehicle for positive change.
