The Southwestern Association for Indian Arts hosted their 86th annual Santa Fe Indian Art Market with an avalance of new creations, returning and new artists and the continously amazing display of gallery art and visitors.

As part of continuing and every expanding exposure and indeed emphasis on the arts; Upper Valley Living Magazine. will feature the incredible art, artists, sights, restaurants and bars of one of the most incredible art displays in the world.

We will provide a gallery of the incredible Indian and non-Indian art. Photos of the artists and interviews with a few. We will provide an array of famous galleries showing everything from world class 19th and 20th century Russian paintings to the most contemporary mixed media creation on the planet.

We will feature places to go near the plaza and as well as favorite hangouts by the locals who know where to get some great food... even Mexican food.

If you could not make it up... and we didn't see too many El Pasoans at the market this year... you will feel like you were there when you are finished with our Virtual Tour of this spectacular one of a kind art "happening".

Stay tuned for our Holiday Issue of Upper Valley Living Magazine. In print on November 15, 2008. Virtual Tour online after that edition hits the counters.
