Art Walking Tours

May through October the New Mexico Museum of Art invites you to join us on one of our weekly Art Walking Tours of Santa Fe (weather permitting). Led by a docent, the tour highlights the art and architectural history of downtown Santa Fe. Tours leave at 10 AM on Mondays and Fridays from the Museum lobby. Tours are $20 per person, and children 16 and under are free. Museum admission is included with the purchase of an Art Walking Tour ticket. Tickets may be purchased online here. Tickets can be purchased at the front desk on the morning of the tour, however, tours have limited capacity and we encourage booking in advance.

Proceeds support education programs at the New Mexico Museum of Art.
