Wellesley Education Expedition

Art, Artists, and Collectors of Santa Fe
2006
May 4-9, May 18-23

Discover what it feels like to be transported to a different time on our tour to "the City Different." Santa Fe, one of America's oldest cities, was founded before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock and to this day retains its rare and genuine old-world charm.

Three distinct cultures- Pueblo Indian, Hispano, and Anglo-have co-existed here for centuries, clashing and melding to define and re-define what the Santa Fe experience means. While we enjoy the adobe architecture, rich history, and regional cuisine, our focus will be on the rich and abundant art scene.

Highlights include a tour of Georgia O'Keeffe's home in Abiquiu, visits to private collections, studio visits with internationally recognized artists, and meals in the city's best restaurants. Spring comes late to the high desert and by May winter will have lost its hold-giving way to flowering trees, fresh spring days, and the endless blue skies of New Mexico.
