The Museum of Contemporary Native Arts prides itself in presenting "Indian art through Indian eyes." To rightfully accomplish that mission, this museum presents a dazzling collection of artwork by artists who have attended or taught at the College of Santa Fe's Museum of Contemporary Native Arts. The resulting collection that is housed here adds up to a staggering 6,500 original pieces created by over 3,000 artists.
Shidoni Arts creates art while being a work of art in and of itself. This stunning sculpture gallery is worth the ten-minute drive north on Bishop's Lodge Road to Tesuque Valley where the Shidoni Gallery is located. The expertly manicured grounds of the gallery are something truly amazing to behold, and you can stroll around to take in the amazing sculptures displayed there that lead to a calming, babbling brook. Depending on the time of your visit, you can actually see sculptures being poured in the working foundry.
At Vanessie of Santa Fe, there is always a Piano Man playing songs that will truly make you feel alright. The charming piano bar is located inside Vanessie's restaurant and attracts fans of great food and equally appealing music. The melodies you know and love come to life thanks to the keyboard virtuosity of such players as Charles Tichenor, Doug Montgomery and other master keyboardists. If you don't feel like heading into the restaurant, you can still order light menu items at the bar so you won't miss a note of the nightlife fun.
So you and your significant other want to take a break but just don't know where to go to enjoy a date that's romantic, quaint and relaxing. Let the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum be the answer to your dilemma. This museum is dedicated to the prolific New Mexico artist as it houses an impressive 1,149 of her paintings, drawings and sculptures, as well as additional works by several other artists. Enjoy a relaxing cup of coffee in the cafe and then take in this unforgettable collection of art that will not only add some color to your time together, you'll both be creating a memory that the two of you are not likely to forget.
