Where We Meet: Santa Fe's Modern History & Future

1600 St. Michaels Drive,Santa Fe NM 87505

24 September, 2022

Description

Join us on September 24th at Santa Fe Art Institute for this thought-provoking and critical conversation. Reserve your spot today! Much of Santa Fe’s modern design history has been overlooked — or erased — in favor of our romanticized notions about “who we are.” And not all stories of our design history get told. Santa Fe has over 200 architects and even more multidisciplinary designers in the areas of branding, interiors, fashion, printmaking, and the arts. Many of these renowned designers are rooted in New Mexico, while others hail from around the world. Their work spans genres, generations, and cultures. This event begins with a trip through twentieth century design in Santa Fe, followed by a panel conversation that explores what we’ve gained, what we’ve lost, and what we can harness from what we’ve learned — to lead us into a better designed, more sustainable, and more inclusive tomorrow—today.
