description

Creative tourism is travel directed toward an engaged and authentic experience, with participative learning in the arts, heritage, or special character of a place. Creative tourism is meant to provide visitors with an up-close, hands-on, real experience, grounded in a community's people and culture. What gives these activities the greatest value is their genuine nature. This website offers listings of creative tourism experiences in the Santa Fe, New Mexico area and allows you to plan multiple experiences during your time here.

Santa Fe’s rich culture

By hosting the 2008 Santa Fe International Creative Tourism Conference, Santa Fe has taken a leadership role for world-wide cities interested in promoting their creative economies. In 2009 Councilor Rebecca Wurzburger, Arts Commission Director Sabrina Pratt, and Arts Commission chairperson Cynthia Graves have made presentations at three international meetings and one in Las Cruces, New Mexico, showcasing Santa Fe as a creative city, sharing the knowledge gathered about creative tourism, and learning about innovative projects and programs happening in over 70 countries. All of these meetings were paid for by the hosting city. Because Santa Fe is not well known in many parts

of the world, and is so different from the large U.S. cities that have wider reputations, audiences are quite interested in learning about us. The attendance at these meetings totaled almost 700 people. The fact that our city has an unusual commitment to local cultural industries and authenticity puts Santa Fe in a position to discuss shared interests with people all over the world.
