Santa Fe International Folk Art Market 🎨🌍✨
As the cultural backyard of Albuquerque (maybe? 😉), Santa Fe truly is a gathering place for all kinds of natural and humanistic arts. Every time I visit, I leave feeling inspired! This time, I went to the International Folk Art Market—with over 170 stalls, it was impossible to see everything! From Arab carpets 🧵, Mexican handmade wooden cabinets, Colombian woven bucket bags, Palestinian glassware, European jewelry 💍, Japanese yokai masks and paper umbrellas 🎭, Tanzanian beaded crafts, Indian clothing and herbal paper products, to Haitian metal ornaments… Who’s lucky enough to explore the whole world right at their doorstep?! My eyes were overwhelmed, and my budget was definitely not enough—but that’s my problem! 😂 I highly recommend The Jumbo Cafe, an East African/Caribbean fusion restaurant 🍛. Their jerk chicken and beef skewers are absolutely delicious! And their special drink—ginger mango lemonade—is super refreshing with just the right kick. One sip and I was hooked! 🥭🍋 Another day well spent in Santa Fe! 🌟 #Art #Handmade #SantaFe #NewMexico #FolkArtFestival #CulturalMarket #GlobalCrafts #FoodFusion #TravelInspiration #LocalFlavor
